I am looking forward to understanding how I can achieve a result similar to the above shared video in Houdini?

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to achieve a few effects in Houdini and would love some guidance or tutorial recommendations:

Animated maze lighting – lights turning on/off in a maze-like pattern.

Light trails with changing colours – trails that follow moving objects and shift hue over time.

Neon-style moving lights – glowing neon lights that animate along a path.

What's the best approach to set these up? Should I use SOPs, CHOPs, or shaders for the color animation? Any tips, example files, or tutorials would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

I am currently working on transferring animated data to an asset in the final output of a shot. I have generated a cache using a Geometry Sequence, but I would appreciate some guidance on the correct and most efficient method to transfer this cached or animated data to the final asset.

Additionally, I would like to know whether the same approach can be applied to simulation caches.

To help illustrate my workflow, I have attached a reference file for your review. I would be grateful for any suggestions or best practices you could share.

Thank you in advance for your support!
