tryst

Hi, all, I am a newby on the list and am in need of your expert knowledge .

My only knowledge of using graphics applications is through using the OpenGL libary within C++, and have no prior knowledge of any other graphics software used.

I need to know what key animation features and modelling techniques that are used in Houdini, and possibily where these key techniques have been used in the industry.

If anyone could direct me to any on-line sources, or even books and journals, it would be a massive help.
