Scenes and progress

I had made a few differences as Im creating the scene where the mermaid and the girl meets. In the picture below, it shows that I first created the scene where it can only see the back or the girl and the mermaid. This is not a good perspective as the user cannot see the expression of the character clearly. So I changed again but this time it broke the 180 degree rules that make the scene looks disconnected to the previous one. In the previous scene, the mermaid is shown to be at the right but current scene it switched places with the girl. This will make the user feels confusing as the placement is not placed correctly. 

Then, I digitized the scene in a different way. As seen in the picture below, the placement is now better and relates to the previous scene. In addition, I use speech bubble to make the character chat but not voice over as picture can tells a million words and it is intenationally understood, there will not be any language barrier to understand the narrative.

I may implement to create some comic panels to show what is the character trying to show in the scene. But my initiative is to allow the user to just understand and see the interaction in a big scene. So I will just put this aside first and while I am doing user testing, I would find the best solution to narrate the story.

These are some digitized sketch of the scenes underwater. I will further refine as it looks very rough and the colour looks dull and dark.
