FXPHD HOU210 Houdini Wire and Cloth Dynamics
Houdini has one of the most innovative, widely used, and extendable dynamics solutions of any 3D solution. The highly popular rigid body solutions and fluid/pyro simulation is relied on in many vfx studios FX pipelines. Wire and cloth simulation are very often underutilized in classic FX work, and often considered mainly for character FX such as hair and clothing. This course will show how wire and cloth simulation can add more realism in many situations involving non-character FX tasks. These workflows can both augment existing destruction workflows as well as enable the Houdini artist to take on many fun and out of the ordinary challenges.
