Houdini 是一个特效方面非常强大的软件。许多电影特效都是由它完成：指环王中“甘道夫”放的那些“魔法礼花”，还有“水马”冲垮“戒灵”的场面，后天中的龙卷风等等，a52的汽车广告，反正只要是涉及DD公司制作的好莱坞一线大片，几乎都会有Houdini参与和应用。

Houdini不光只适用于视觉特效的制作，随着HOUDINI适用于各种平台，并且出现了很多的HOUDINI培训教学，HOUDINI开始进入了动态图像设计领域。因为其自身的流程化特性，加上其强大的动力学系统，让HOUDINI在数据可视化方面占有一席重要的地位，让图形设计师能够通过它表达自己的观点。

CGWorkshops Introduction to FX using Houdini

Spencer Lueders is currently a Senior FX Technical Director at Sony Pictures Imageworks in Los Angeles. He’s now here to work with you at CGWorkshops in this 8 week online, fully-mentored Houdini training course.

Spencer will cover a variety of material and get into many technical low level concepts, such as the maths, geometry, and trigonometry, etc involved in gaining complete control over an effect. When it comes to making great FX, there aren’t any push-button solutions. This course helps to lay that groundwork to understand what is going on under the ‘hood’.

Spencer will take you step-by-step through the construction of a production ready scene in Houdini – right from looking at the UI and procedural modeling in Week 1, and eventually on to particles and fluids. You will cover techniques that give complete control when you’re creating cracks, wind effects, dissolving effects, as well as procedural modeling, to name a few..

Finally, you’ll bring in the various elements you have created together in one final scene.

Don’t miss the chance to learn from one of the industry’s most experienced Houdini professionals.
