Author:Stefano Cotardo
Skill level:Beginner
Language:English
Exercise files:Yes
What you will learn:
- Integration of simulations and visual effects in actual videos
- Camera tracking techniques
- Fire, smoke, and water simulations using Houdini
- Mantra rendering process
- Composition in After Effects.
Course Requirements:
- Basic understanding of Houdini interface.
Course Description:
This course aims to teach you how to use Houdini to create simulations for compositing with real-world footage. The workflow includes recording the video, match moving, simulation creation in Houdini, and final compositing. This is a crucial technique in video production with visual effects or virtual backgrounds. You will learn how to make simulations specifically for integration in real videos.
This course is suitable for beginners with some basic Houdini knowledge such as interface navigation and node manipulation. If you are a complete beginner, it is recommended to start with the “Houdini FX step by step – Visual Effects made easy” course to gain an understanding of the software’s basics. Nevertheless, each step is thoroughly explained, allowing you to follow along easily from start to finish.
For each lesson, you will have access to related resources, including the final project and a starting project with camera tracking and background setup, so you can focus on building the simulations.
Target Audience:
- Houdini students interested in simulations and visual effects.
