I decided I wanted to recreate this effect shown in this tutorial in blender. They switched to photoshop for the actual compositing so I wanted to see if I could recreate it for use in possible videos. I followed the tutorial and I ended up with this.

Unfortunately, all of the parts put in to it have resulted in it taking an extremely long time to actually apply the effect. To be honest, right now I don’t really have anything I’m interested in applying the effect to aside from just random videos for fun, but I think it would be good to know if I can optimize it for actual feasible use, as well as hopefully getting some tips to optimize future nodegroups.
