Artist's Comments
About Me: 
My name is Jan. I am located in Germany and I use Blender for my private projects and also for freelancing jobs.

About "Escape from the World:"
My goal for this piece was to create an inviting scene, especially focusing on the water. I wanted to see how far i could go in terms of creating a realistic render in the Eevee render engine.
Regarding the waves, at first I created the mesh for the ocean and used a displacement modifier to get the moving waves. I used video footage of an aerial view of the ocean as texture for the displacement. It already had a nice rolling wave effect, but the transition to the beach did not look good, so I added another mesh between water and beach mesh to add a surf. It uses a shrinkwap modifier to make it move along with waves from the water mesh. I used another video clip of a shoreline as color texture for this and also as the input for the alpha.
I tweaked the alpha until I only had the white foam visible and ended up with a surf sitting on top of the water waves mesh. Also had the to make the video clips for the textures looping, so you that there is no visible cut when the footage starts again.
