Full Content Description:
This course is different in many ways. Where a lot of intro courses
will just show you how some basics tools work, we will start learning
the underlying logic of houdini and actually apply that knowledge to
creating a production quality shot in the same way you would during an
actual vfx production.
There’s another difference with this course.. we actually won’t be
covering any of the simulation tools. You might ask… why? Because
Houdini is known for it’s simulation.
Problem is… I see a lot of beginners make the mistake of jumping
straight into dynamics without understanding the core concepts first.
The goal for this course was to show you can actually do amazing
stuff without even touching the simulation tool by mastering the
fundamentals. Nothing in the demo underwater shot you saw was
simulated, everything was done with procedural animation and
generation. When you have mastered those fundamentals, simulating will
be easy! You will be in a much better spot to watch any other Houdini
tutorial as you will understand fundamentally what is happening. Not
just following instructions.
This course is suitable for absolute beginners.
