chopper crash in water

I created this short clip last year in #Houdini 20 and rendered it with #KarmaXPU. While it’s not physically accurate and there’s room for improvement, my main goal was to test the new #oceanprocedural node in Houdini 20 and render everything with KarmaXPU.

Through this process, I learned many new techniques. A huge thanks to my teacher @diogoguerreiroazul for his guidance and my friend @mes_3dcg for always being there to help. Shoutout to @sarthak_pandey_ from the @indianvfxschool for his white water simulation optimization tips.

Special thanks to my youngest brother @imranfareed250 for the camera and chopper animation in Blender, and to my younger brother @roy_umair_fareed for the amazing compositing work, including sky replacement and other tweaks.
