I'd skip VFX/CGI entirely and go with it. Either film on a real lake (a quiet, still, lake), or in a bath tub. You just wouldn't get the splashing. That you might be able to do in post/ask someone else to do in post.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[I've just tried using stock footage but there were no real good videos and they were all to expensive. :|  
Is there anywhere where I can find free video clips of just a motionless ocean, otherwise, are there any other ways, I've ready used squirlz and Gimp gives a cartoony look I'm not looking for.  
Is there any easy way to imitate this. [url]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XpCWOyT8hrU&feature=related[/url]  
I know it's CGI and that it probably took months of hard work to make that, but just an easy imitation. Just to what I'm looking for.
Thanks]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[Hi, 
I was just wondering if anyone knew any good ways to create an good, realistic ocean, preferably with a sense of depth (such as seeing that the boat is in the water, such as the waterline is over the top of the boat). I chroma-keyed and used sqirlz but ot doesn't seem to create the right effect.  
Thanks  :) 
Also, would it help to use water, or would you just color the boat pieces and try to recreate damp wood, I know what would make that quite difficult]]></content>
