Description

In these 17+ hours, you will dive deep into Houdini environment creation´s powerful tools and possibilities. 

We will create a very complex environment, inspired by the Faroe Islands. You will learn advanced techniques to create terrains, to combine different flip simulations, like a waterfall that will interact with the ocean, where there will be waves breaking against rocks, and all integrated with the ocean grid. Looks hard? Let me add something else. we will do that with a super powerful workflow that allows you to create super complex environments even on your home computer. 

This is a very special course, and completely unique. This is not about showing you my scene so you could copy it. It is about understanding the concepts of professional environment creation. The goal of this course is to unlock the understanding of Houdini and to be able to set you free from technical limitations and be able to translate your ideas to your scene.

And don´t be intimidated by the complexity of this environment. We go through step by step, solving problems with efficiency as they appear. 

I am really confident that after this course you will feel completely at home in Houdini. Creating not only this environment but any other that you might want to create.

We will render this on Redshift 3D, but the concepts could be applied to most render engines.

COURSE Highlights

• Create negative angles in vertical cliffs;
• Merge, combine and create interactions between 2 large simulations;
• Replicate simulations and extend copies of them to other areas of your environment in a very optimized way;
• Merge a flip simulation to the ocean grid seamlessly with a special custom methodology;
• Use Axiom solver to create a dynamic mist around your waterfall simulation;
• Learn how to make your scene really optimized you you can create a complex environment as you want, without worrying too much with memory and general hardware resources;
• Learn different methods to mesh your fluid simulations;
• Learn new techniques to render whitewater with Redshift;
• We will cover compositing both in Nuke and Fusion so you go with whatever suits you best.
