In this session, we will explore the magical world of 3D and simulation, using Houdini FX. Particles, Rigid Body (Hard surface breaking), Pyro (Fire and smoke), and Flip (Water and fluid) will be covered. At the end of the session, you will know what is possible with Houdini, grasp an idea on how to navigate in this software, understand the mechanism behind CG effects, and also learn how to find resources around the realms of visual effects and 3D.

Please download the SideFX Houdini Apprentice software (free) prior to the session if you wish to follow along during the session.
