This is my concept of environment of the dancing oracle for "300 The Oracle Dance" from VfxTalk in may 2007. - I was looking for a mood to match the overall look and feel of the movie (the well known "crush effect"), but this particular scene is a lot different than the original since the provided footage looks different than the original. I tried to catch the movie look&feel, and also to emphasize the ideea of trance by reversing and timeremapping her motion. Also added some particles around her to emphasize the ideea of magic.
U can see the movie and the breakdowns here:
