Houdini for beginners | Tutorial

Four introductory videos by Mauriccio Torres.

Mauriccio Torres

Mauriccio Torres (“Ándale, ándale!”) shares his four-part Houdini tutorial series with you, in which he teaches you the basics of flipping a Houdini workflow – until you can see Houdini down to the ones and zeros. Ewww! You little piglets!

The first part offers: An introduction to the programme and its user interface, as well as the basics of the node structure and its hierarchies. In the second part you will learn how to copy objects, set up the corresponding normals, work with megascan files and add a randomised rotation. In part three, you will learn about different noise types and the use of different inputs – including working with attribute nodes. The fourth and final video is about: Mesh cutter techniques, adjusting curve normals and how to add curves to geometries.

Have we forgotten anything? I’m sure we did! But that doesn’t matter, because you’ll all be tackling all four parts right away anyway, right? Let’s go, you busy artists!

    1. Hi!
      Gute Frage – keine Ahnung, warum er sie mittlerweile auf Privat gestellt hat
      – du könntest ihn anschreiben, und fragen, ob er dir einen Link schickt ? :)
