Idea effects - tree roots

Another effect in my piece is the living tree roots.

This effect has been used before in a film called 'The evil dead' in which the roots came alive and rape a girl. I believe that in that particular case they used robotics / animatronics.



However i have decided to use both special and visual effects.
So for the first part where the roots are pertruding out of the oil and slashing at the girl i would use 'After Effects'
Here is a video showing the type of thing that is achievable -
When the girl is actually caught by the tree and bound in place, i would use pre-made vines on set as i believe trying to create vines around a person on a computer would be very difficult and would take alot of time.
