How do you get started on something that looks really daunting and impossible... like learning Houdini? Just like eating an elephant, you have to do it one step at a time. Here are some practical strategies for "eating that elephant."

 Machine FX is the home of Sean Lewkiw's SideFX Houdini tutorials. If you're interested in learning computer graphics for VFX, games, motion design, or CG animation, this is the place to start!
