Introduction to Houdini from Matthew "Rick" Shaw on Vimeo.
I recently completed an 8 week Introduction to Houdini workshop led by Spencer Leuders (a fantastic VFX TD at Sony Imageworks, previously at Rhythm and Hues) and I have to say it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. The course was fantastic, and I would highly recommend it to anyone else interesting in starting in Houdini.
I have long dreamed of getting into VFX, but it always seemed to be a long term goal. However, I couldn't pass up the opportunity when I saw the course and now I'm delighted to say I have a fairly strong grasp of the workings of Houdini. Of course, working full time and dedicating most of my free time to the course meant I wasn't able to go anywhere near this site, but at long last I have found the time to post once more. So, what better to start with than a piece from the course. Obviously, in such a small time frame for each topic we covered, none of the results are particularly polished, but I was quite pleased with the general result of this piece. I'll hopefully be posting more of them as I find the time (and ideally get them a little more polished up!).
