CHOPs and Parameters - Exploring Houdini

[@vfxskull6208]

this is fantastic, thanks!

Amazing art !! 👀

Wow this video and you're previous (Exploring Houdini: CHOPs (Channel Operators) - Basic Motion Channels) video helped me finish my project! I was stuck on how I could export a channel value and then multiply it so its big enough of a value for polyextrude. THANK YOU!

It's interesting going from Houdini to Touch Designer and then finally learning Houdini CHOPs and seeing the similarity / origins of Touch

Nice... one thing, and it may seem minor - you could create the scene with one sphere then branch off three color nodes (red, green, yellow), then a Transform node after each color node - the transform node is a much better node to use for animation - you have been animating the 'Center' parameter of the spheres, this can lead to confusion later. keep up the good work!

Thank you for the suggestion! This does indeed sound like a better approach, especially as it separates the modelling from the motion.

Nice, clearly explain. Thanks

Yess!!

awesome!

pretty helpful bro thanks

thank you!

Rename vs Export -> is that just demonstrating two ways to accomplish feeding parameters from a chop?

[@skyex]

The merge CHOP here is redundant-the noise and fetch nodes can be fed directly into the math2 node while the fetch alone is left feeding into math1.

Oh god--the more I watch these the more I realize I'm gonna transition into animating 3d models.

sin(time()) doesn't work for me!

[@antonpariy6776]

Try to print sin($T). It should help

The reason is that he is in Python not hscript
