Testing: Teleporting

Loki teleports where initially my favorite type of teleport to use, as it would relate closer the the film. As there was no tutorials of how to do this strange, bended light effect and I had after research into how to do it resulted unsuccessfully, I looked at other options. 

 Nightcrawlers teleports in X-Men 2 were one of my personal favorite type of teleports, so I looked into how to produce these. As nightcrawler teleports in a smoky fashion the teleports I thought would be difficult, but I found useful tutorials, such as this one by 'MHLstudio' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TE-ocggI4OE, and I looked at a few others. Somehow, my teleports (which I was initially proud of) after reflection I found myself somewhat disappointed in how 2D mine looked.
So I decided finally to either develop my skill in this teleport, or as this is time consuming if I did run out of time I could revert to Looper style teleports, (that just appear) which are extremly easy to replicate and I still think are effective.
