rotoscoping idea..saved for another day

i've been testing out potential 2d animated elements to go over the scene in post production, so I tried out some rotoscoping animation using my own footage of jellyfish. but quickly scrapped it down to time and it would need much more practice. An idea for the future. .

@ALAN Adaptation current textures (rendering problem)

Current textures rendered. (some uv mapping problems to be fixed.)  It took 54 minutes to render, which really doesn't seem right, it could be my computer but could it also be a texturing problem? I am using ambient occlusion in the textures also, and only one directional light.. .

texturing : shell tests

repainting a texture to match concept art 

previous test using a texture made early on, trying out mia_material_x but went for blinns instead.

using blinn with preexisting bump texture in the hypershade menu currently. 

Matte painting made for the water underneath this central glass dancefloor area with added glow currently.
