Welcome to a new Houdini Course: Magical Energy Beam
In this course we are going to create this entire VFX shot from start to finish with Houdini, Nuke & Redshift!
Volumetric Clouds
We're going to start in Houdini by creating the clouds using geometry as a base, and then we will use Volume VOPs to remove density, twist and deform our volumes to animate the clouds.
Particle Shockwave
For the shockwave effect we're going to create a pyro simulation and use the velocity to drive our particles.
For the particles, we're going to look into different ways to modify the velocity advection to create a more unique and magical look.
I'm also going to show you some quick and easy ways to create more interesting colors with a lot of detail.
Volumetric Fog
For the fog we're going to create custom noise patterns that we can layer together to get a more realistic result.
Here we'll also go over the best way to optimize our render by splitting the fog into separate parts.
Beam FX
Finally we will create the energy beam with some simple volume manipulation.
Terrain Creation
As a bonus I also cover the creation of the terrain inside Houdini and Substance Painter.
Rendering - Redshift
In the rendering section we will separate all of our components in separate layers.
We're going to create individual light setups for everything, set-up all the materials render passes, and render everything using Redshift.
Nuke
In nuke we will bring all of our renders and start putting everything together.
We will separate the AOVs for each layer so we can have complete control over the final output.
We're going to cover various topics such as using expressions to automate animations, creating and adding 3d elements to our shot, and a bunch of general tips and tricks you can use in any project.
Downloads
You will have all the geometry, assets & textures required included with the downloads.
The download archive also include the completed Houdini project file (ver. 19.5) and Nuke project file (ver. 13.2v4) - Please note that the Nuke project file is with the Indie version

Hope it's useful! Let me know what you think :)

Purchased successfully. I bought most of your tutorials even though I don't have time to watch them. Hopefully they will work in the future. Thank you

[@voxyde]

Haha I hope you find the time! I edit every lesson so it's strictly only important information and not waste time, thank you for the support!

[@saisaindane5966]

seems like you got inspiration from brahmastra movie , btw course is looking nice

[@dalelinney8437]

Great looking course! Just about to buy (all your stuff is superb). Just FYI I think the text on Gumroad is from the rose disintegration tutorial.

[@voxyde]

Hey thanks for the heads-up! Gonna fix that right now haha 😅 Hope you enjoy the course!

The discount is no longer available 😔 Can I get the discount again?☺ Thank you!

a 4070ti super 16go with 64go ram can handle this kind of simulation ? love from france

[@voxyde]

Oh that's more than enough. Worst case scenario you can just use slightly lower voxel amount and you'll get 95% the same result. In the course I up the resolution as much as possible, but you don't have go to as high.

[@PnoMate]

@@voxyde thank you very much

[@VisualistAyush07]

Hello,My computer has only 16 gb ram and a potato gpu Can I still follow this course and is the course required basic knowledge of houdini?

[@voxyde]

Hi. You probably need at least 32 gb and a decent cpu to have good resulsts. And unfortunately yes, it's more aimed at intermediate houdini users! 3-6 months experience
