In VFX 131 (Visual Effects Animation II) Houdini is introduced for the first time. Students learn to work in a node-based 3D application for the first time. By the end of the course, they will understand procedural modelling, particle simulations, rigid body simulations, and basic scripting for VFX.
In VFX 231 (Visual Effects Animation III) students will continue to develop and refine the process of simulating particles, fluids, dynamic objects and cloth in 3D space. This course will focus on the use of realistic simulated effects in film projects and their creation using advanced 3D animation software (Houdini).
