FXPHD – HOU212: Procedural Production Workflow The Force Field

Houdini is a package that is renowned in the visual effects industry for it’s ability to handle heavy duty effects. While it’s popularity has steadily been increasing in recent years thanks to it’s off-the-shelf ability to handle Pyro and Flip Fluids, it’s important to keep in mind that Houdini has had a rich, multi-decade history pushing procedural, network based workflow.

In this series of classes, we will stow the shelf and work on building up a solid understanding of how Houdini works. Our goal with this series is to build up a solid foundation and put together an arsenal of skills that will allow us to tackle a wide range of effects in production. While the intention is to garner an excellent familiarity with general Houdini practices; we’ll be training ourselves using one effect in particular: The Force Field.

Force fields are a popular element in a wide variety of games and film. We’ll look at some of the techniques necessary to create this magical effect, using a combination of surface manipulation, recursive operations, particles, and shading. We’re going to get comfortable passing data through a variety of networks to get what we want out of our effect and leave you with a better understanding of how to use Houdini to accomplish whatever you want.

The course is taught by Stephen G. Tucker, who came first from a classical animation background to Maya, to Houdini. He has worked with Side Effects Software Inc. where he managed the internship program, helped troubleshoot customer files, and create learning material. He has since worked on films in Toronto, Sydney, and Vancouver.
