Info:
In this online course, the viewer will learn about Houdini simulating realistic Smoke and having it interact with the environment as well as animated objects.
The course will start exploring DOPs and Smoke simulation in Houdini as a way to introduce you to simulating real world phenomenon in Houdini. We’ll work on smaller projects such as a smoke vortex portal, a tire burnout effect and a big project which will consist of simulating a smoke grenade and having a car collide with it. Not only will we be creating great smoke effects but we’ll also learn about lighting, shading and rendering with Vray inside Houdini.
Along the way, we’ll go through many tips and tricks to work efficiently and get amazing results.
This course has been designed for users already familiar with Houdini’s UI and workflow. The complexity of the topics and assignments will start fairly simple but get progressively more complex every week.
After viewing this course, people can expect to feel confident while creating complex Smoke FX with Houdini using the Pyro Solver and the new Pyro Sparse Solver, and also lighting and shading with Vray 5 for Houdini.
Tools used: Houdini 18.5
Prerequisites: Basic Knoledge of Houdini’s UI and workflow
Warning: Be sure to scan all the downloaded files with your Antivirus and if there is an executable or installer file, make sure to have your antivirus active and open in the background while installing or running the app. Some of the materials posted here are downloaded from CGPeers, So they could potentially have something injected in them.
We always ask bloggers to scan all the files before publishing the posts, but sometimes it's hard to detect all these things, so if you found anything suspicious (Not false positive, Generic, Patcher, Riskware and Heuristic results, most patches could get false flags like that by some Antivirus companies.) be sure to post comments with the file name and a VirusTotal report result link or the file MD5 Hash (higher than 30% overall positive result). Thank you.
