The creation of visual effects is rooted in the simulation of real-world physical phenomena, with the goal of enhancing the sense of immersion in the contents. One such effect, the visualization of underwater explosions using Computer Graphics (CG), poses a significant challenge due to a lack of readily available academic or reference data. This study is an experimental examination of technology for the realization of 3D computer graphics, specifically addressing the challenges of underwater explosion effects. The research process for the production of underwater explosion CG, previously comprising four steps, has been modified and expanded to six steps in this study. Through the identification and resolution of shortcomings in existing experimental research and optimization of the production process, this study aims to provide an efficient method for the creation of underwater explosion effects in CG.
