UNLOCK VELLUM'S POWER: CONTROLLED INFLATION TECHNIQUES

Welcome to another exciting Houdini tutorial! In this video, we’ll dive into the world of inflating objects using Vellum balloon simulations in SideFX Houdini. I'll show you how to use a falloff to control exactly where the inflation happens, giving you precise and stunning results.

What you'll learn:

- Setting up Vellum balloon simulations in Houdini

- Using MOPs spread falloff to control inflation areas

- Advanced techniques for realistic 3D effects

- Tips and tricks for perfecting your simulations
