Houdini 2

Overview

This course builds on the principles learned in Houdini 1. Through lectures and homework assignments, students learn to develop introductory simulations using SideFX’s Houdini. Emphasis is placed on Houdini’s dynamics tool kit, including particles, volume-based fluids, flip fluids, and pyro effects. Classes include a mixture of weekly dynamic simulations demonstrations and discussions of the procedural methods used, as well as project critiques and industry tips. Students will explore various workflows, building individual final projects.
