My name is Shahzad Ahmad. I am a Houdini FX Artist. I am passionate about creating Visual Effects (explosions, smokes, fire, clouds, dust, particles, magic, etc.), as well as all kinds of destruction and fluids. I am a self-taught Artist. And I love watching science documentaries and Sci-Fi movies!
By the end of this course:
- You will be able to create procedural animations with CHOPs.
- You will be able to create procedural grass wind in Houdini.
- You will be able to create ground dust simulation in Houdini.
- You will be able to create dynamics plants and vegetation simulation in Houdini.
- You will be able work with confident in solaris.
What You Will Learn
- Houdini procedural animation workflow
- Procedural tree generation
- Working with wire solver
- Creating custom velocities with volume
- Scattering multiple objects
- Procedural grass wind
- Tree rig for wire solver
- Ground dust simulation
- Working with solaris
- Importing instances in solaris
- Rendering with Karma CPU
Course Projects:
We will start with importing helicopter model and we will use CHOPs to procedurally animate helicopter. And then we will import plants and vegetation and use wire solver to simulate plants we will be using volume velocities to create custom wind for plants and vegetation simulation. And then we will learn how to create procedural grass wind using VOPs. After we have animated grass and vegetation we will take a look at creating instances and scattering plants and vegetation in here we will use loops and copy stamping to add per instance animation timing variation. After that we will use Sidefx labs tree tool to procedurally generate bamboo trees and we will rig our procedurally generated tree for wire solver. And then we will use particles simulation to create grass blowing in the wind effect. And after that we will use pyro solver to create ground dust simulation. And then we will import all of our assets in to solaris for shading and rendering in here we will take a look at how we can import instances efficiently in to solaris and we will assign materials and render our final shot
