I've just released a new introduction course to Houdini.

Made for those new to Houdini who may be trying to switch from another software and find themselves in “new interface hell.”

This is a very extensive introduction to Houdini with many many hours of lectures, hip files, a pdf book, and with or without my instructor support. I try to cover as many of the “how to I start to do this…” things in almost every area of the software.

I also go over “How Houdini Thinks” and some of the hidden gems which seem to be just “below” the interface level but critical for understanding the software.

From time to time I yawn during the lectures, just to assure you that at times I think it can be boring too!

I have had over 25 years of production experience in film and television and share tidbits of knowledge from my experience.

During those years I have done a lot of teaching, while on the job, at universities, vocational schools and with my online school, Vizy Acky. Many of my students have gone on to great jobs in LA, Vancouver, London, Hong Kong, Beijing and all points west.

Hi

I have an excellent very detailed introduction to Houdini. I've taught these techniques to many of my students who have gone on to work at Digital Domain, Rhythm and Hues, Dreamworks, Weta, Blue Sky and more.

Although there is a new python version for Houdini I needed to use this path for the help to work.
