- ILM’s General Artist Supervisor (Adrien Lambert) builds the Hungarian parliament building with Houdini.
- Twenty-minute tutorial: Learn how to build a node network and set up a procedural working approach.
In nuce: In this twenty-minute tutorial, Adrien Lambert, General Artist Supervisor at ILM, shows you how he uses Houdini to build the Hungarian parliament building.

Adrien Lambert and his Houdini project: During his time at Digic Picture (Digital Production Studio from Budapest), Lambert admired the neo-Gothic architecture on a daily basis and could not help but dedicate his own Houdini project to this beautiful government building. The tutorial is primarily intended to provide an overview of how Lambert built his node network, but also what his procedural working approach looks like. In the video, he concentrates primarily on the tower of the building, as, according to Lambert, this combines all the important building elements: windows, conical tops, triangular tops, columns and decorative ornaments.
