Making fire effects

Requirements

I expect you to have some sort of basic 3D knowledge.
You should have Houdini 19.5 installed on your computer.

Description

Are you a beginner and want to learn all the Houdini effects?

Then I welcome you to Houdini for Absolute Beginners course.

WHY SHOULD YOU LEARN FROM ME:

Hello, 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 work in Houdini with confidence.

You will be able to create procedural geometry in houdini.

You will be able to create smoke and pyro simulations.

You will be able to create particle simulations.

You will be able to create soft body simulations.

WHAT WILL I LEARN:

Houdini procedural workflow

Geometry Attributes

Geometry Grouping

Scattering multiple objects

Working with VOPs

Writing VEX Code

Geometry data types

Houdini volumes

Building smoke simulation network

Building pyro simulation network

Working with ACES color space

Create particles FX

Working with grains

Create rigid body simulations

Geometry fracturing techniques

Working with RBD Constraints

Working with vellum solver

Create vellum soft bodies

Vellum constraints

Creating flip fluids

Rendering flip fluids

Rendering with Karma XPU

COURSE PROJECTS:

We will start with the basic houdini navigation and get familiar with the user interface. And then we will talk about geometry grouping and geometry attributes and create two procedural projects. First we will create a procedural spiral staircase and then procedural nuclear reactor cooling tower. After that we will learn about VEX and VOPs working with VOPs and writing VEX code and we will create projection deformers both in VEX and VOPs. After we have good understanding with houdini SOPs then we will dive into houdini DOP land and create dynamics simulations we will learn about volumes and voxels and build a smoke simulation network. After that we will learn about pyro solvers and create fire simulations to generate sparks for fire and then we learn about explosions and create an explosion project. After that we learn about particles, setting up particle simulation networks to work with particle forces and we will create our own custom forces to drive particle simulation. And then we will learn about grains, how to activate grains and create sand simulation. After that we will learn about rigid body simulations and setup RBD simulation networks and we will learn different geometry fracturing techniques and we learn about constraints, how to create constraints and different constraints types. And after that we will learn about vellum to create soft bodies simulation and learn about different vellum constraints and how to dynamically adjust constraints while simulating. And we will finish this course out with flip fluids and we learn how to set up a flip simulation network. We will learn about flip viscosity to create viscous fluids. And we will render all our projects in Karma renderer. We will learn how to import geometry in Solaris for rendering and we will learn about Karma XPU for rendering.
