Animations under the sea
Some of the easiest items to animate are sea creature, For the most part the animation can be achieved using SMIL's animateTransform on the d element.

A deep ocean prehistoric creature travels through his domain. Is it a Plesiosaurs? No. Because my doodle is of a gentle gaint, a plant eater infact. Also depicted is a nautilus, angelfish, seahorse and sea urchin along with other underwater aquatic plants. |
|
Interesting fact: To swim, the nautilus draws water into its chamber , which it then uses as a jet propulsion. |
A cartoon animation of a seahorse and jellyfish
underwater. Jellyfish are softbodied, free-swimming aquatic animals with trailing tentacles.The tentacles are used to capture food and defend against predators. Jellyfish can be found in shallow waters near the beach down to deep dark ocean. |

This
animation is an example of using frames to achieve the
illusion of movement. Each of the scuba dive below consists
of eight independent frames. The scuba diver in the upper
left hand corner is set at 8 frames per 600 milliseconds.
The scuba dive in the upper right hand corner is set at 8
frames per 1200 milliseconds. |

A Yellow Submarine exploring the
deep oceans spots an Octopus. I do not know why a dolphin
would be found amonst the sea urchin and jelly fish?
But since it is a silly doodle, who cares! |
Doodle of a gaint red squid
|
||
A giant red squid its tentacles floating about in the ocean depths. Perhaps ready to attack some unsuspecting Mariners on the surface. His eyes as wide as a plate platter. A great monster of the deep sea. It roams the world's oceans at its will! Of course the truth is a giant squid can grow to tremendous size due to deep-sea gigantism. Estimates put the maximum size at 43 ft. Which include it long arms and 8 tentacles. |
Inkscape Doodle Hint |
When setting timing attributes (begin or dur) in Inkscape always try and use milisecons inseated of seconds. Firefox does not respond correct with seconds. Example when setting the begin attribute in animation use begin = 0ms instead of begin = 0s. |
