Swimming test

In these tests I wanted to experiment with different kinds of movement through the water. In The first test I tried to create a realistic swimming action  by simulating strokes through the water.



I think this does well at representing a more realistic swimming action in terms of physics but i'm not sure if it represents the film very well:



Skip to 2:04 in the video above to see what I mean.
The shark in jaws swims with a much smoother motion as it glides which I think all sharks and dolphins conform to. So I made this other test video to show it a bit more accurately.
I also want to include a lighter coloured streak behind the fin where it cuts through the water.
