2 Characters and a Setting
For this project we have to create an animation based on 2 character and a setting that they are placed in.
My choice is the Goby Shrimp
Goby Shrimp is a pair of Pistol Shrimp and Goby fish.
As the goby uses the shrimp's burrow for protection
from predators, it also acts as "eyes" for the pistol shrimp. During the
day, the goby hovers above the burrow, feeding and interacting with
other gobies. Meanwhile, the shrimp uses its antennae to stay in
constant contact with the goby's tail while searching for food
(detritus, tiny crustaceans and worms) and maintaining the burrow
opening. If a predatory fish approaches, the goby flicks its tail
several times, alerting the shrimp to retreat into the burrow. If the
predator comes within striking distance, the goby will dart headfirst
into the burrow. During the night, the two simply rest together in the
burrow.
