    Some Of The Topics Covered In This Course

    Creating Geometry With Alpha Maps

    Procedural Animation With CHOPs (Channel Operators)

    Soft Body Simulations With Vellum

    Forcing Vellum Constraint To Follow Animation

    Particles Simulation

    Shading Particles With Image Texture

    Particles Advection

    Smoke Simulation

    Working Inside Solaris/LOPs

    Working With MaterialX Shaders

    Rendering With Karma XPU

    Compositing In After Effects

    First we will start with creating the butterfly wings and then we are going use the chops to create wings procedural flapping animation.

    We will use vellum to simulate butterfly wings and after that we will use particles simulation to emit particles from butterfly wings.

    we will learn how to color our particles with image texture.

    we will create smoke simulation and use the smoke simulation velocities to advect our particles.

    we will  learn how to import all our scene in to LOPs Solaris for lighting and shading and for rendering.

    we will learn how to use the Karma XPU to render our magical fx.

    And we will finish our course of by composting inside of after effects.

    we will learn how we can import our rendered sequence and passes in the correct OCIO color space.

    this course is for anyone who is looking to polish their houdini skills and want to add magical fx in their portfolio.

    We got lot to cover so without further ado let’s get to it
