VEX is an essential skill for creating realistic and compelling FX work in Houdini
WEEK 1 – HSCRIPT
In this first week, we will be starting our Houdini scripting journey with HScript and HExpressions as a way to ease into some of the thinking and techniques we will use throughout this course.
WEEK 2 – SNIPPETS
This week, we begin working with VEX and learning how to write correct VEX code snippets.
WEEK 3 – ADVANCED CONCEPTS
This week, we are tackling some more advanced concepts within VEX.
WEEK 4 – FUNCTIONS
This week, we take a look at some important VEX functions; covering topics such as strings, noise functions and how to work with VEX within DOPs.
WEEK 5 – PRACTICAL EXAMPLES
This week, we are wrapping up our fundamental knowledge of VEX by combining everything we have learned into a wide range of practical examples, for practice and improved performance.
WEEK 6 – SOP SETUPS
This week, we start work on our final project for the workshop, applying everything we have learned so far to create an effect that would otherwise be impossible to achieve through normal SOP setups.
WEEK 7 – FINAL TOUCHES
This is the final week of our VEX project, where we will put the finishing touches on the system we have designed so far.
WEEK 8 – RENDERING
This week I will be handing over to Saber, who will teach you all about rendering this project, using mantra and/or redshift.
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.
Thank you very much for sharing.
Just wanted to say, I don’t know if I am correct but Week 1 Chapter 6 and Week 8 Chapter 10 and 15 are missing right? Can these be uploaded?
Also it seems Week 7 is incomplete, can you please have a look and upload the rest.
Thanks for providing this course.
