Hard to Starboard - FULL CG short - Please Read Body

I posted a cut of this video, about two months ago, which had some generative models used in it, primarily to reproduce the ocean and how the ship interacted with it. Needless to say, i got crucified for it on here and the video was taken off. Therefore i spent the subsequent two months, reproducing all the shots where generative tools were previously used, using 3DsMax, Corona Render, LiquiGen and Ae. Let me know your thoughts! SOUND ON!

A CGI, 2D, Ai hybrid pipeline, coming together inside of After Effects (done for the sake of experimentation, I do not endorse Ai)

Ai was mainly used to add in the FX, ie, water, mist, foam, bubbles, wake elements and everything that would otherwise take weeks to compute and render. The model was a high polygon Asset, i found on CgTrader, that was shaded and rendered using Corona Render, along with what i could find online that could be 2D composited. Photoshop generative fill along with Chatgpt were used to first add the water and ice field and Higgsfield was used to animate the rest.

SOUND ON 🎧

Okay, my last straw - Reddit, how would you go about achieving this?

I tried, keyframe animation, shape layers and Trapcode particular, i achieved somehow, a similar look, however it took longer than ever, and it is not quite as organic as the reference. Any new ideas?
