Download new video course by FXPHD – HOU105 – Houdini Fundamentals, Collection 1 | Taught by Andrew Lowell

This series of short lessons is designed to get a new Houdini user up and running with a set of core fundamentals. There are a lot of tutorials for new users who focus on the software. However, without knowledge of Houdini's data flow and fundamental workflows in proceduralism, the users will remain severely limited. Although the examples are basic enough for new users to follow along, they touch on concepts which will carry all the way through to advanced setups by learning how to direct the flow of geometry data, and important concepts in noise, vectors and rotations, population, and simulation.

For many years Andrew has been recognized by the industry as an FX TD and trainer. Movie credits/studios include Mummy 3, Aliens in the Attic, Invictus, Thor, ****er Punch, Transformers 3, Jack the Giant Slayer, and Ender's Game at studios Digital Domain, Rhythm and Hues, and Animal Logic. He's conducted many seminars around the world and written articles, authored a Houdini book, also conducts formal training at dedicated institutions such as Animation Workshop and fxphd.
