FXPHD – HOU213: Creating Dynamic Destruction FX in Houdini, Maya, & Nuke

本课程将使用Maya、Houdini 和 Nuke 来演示刚体破碎、粒子特效和流体效果的模拟。在本课程中，我们将学习如何模拟大规模破坏镜头的所有英雄元素，包括打碎玻璃、掉落的纸张、翻滚的家具、使用流体的粉尘爆炸、使用流体从混凝土碎片上留下的灰尘以及如何烘焙和编译所有在 Nuke 中一起进行模拟。本课程将侧重于 FX 模拟，而不是 Renderman 或 Arnold 中的逼真照明或在 3D 渲染上合成其他实时动作元素。
对于任何 FX TD，本课程将非常适合学习如何在 CGI 中摧毁建筑物。今天的动作电影具有越来越复杂的刚体模拟和破坏效果，因此本课程将使您能够面对最详细和最复杂的大规模模拟。本课程需要相当高级的 Maya/Houdini 建模、动画和 FX 知识，以及对大型 FX 的文件命名、内存和磁盘使用的理解。
该课程由 Liam Whitehouse 教授，他自 2003 年以来一直从事 3D 和视觉效果行业，毕业于格里菲斯大学，获得工业设计学位。Liam 最近在格里菲斯大学电影学院教授视觉特效，并在昆士兰布里斯班的昆士兰艺术学院教授 Nuke。

FXPHD – HOU213: Creating Dynamic Destruction FX in Houdini, Maya, & Nuke

aya, Houdini and Nuke will be used in this course to demonstrate the simulation of rigid body debris, particle fx and fluid effects. In this course we will learn how to Simulate all the hero elements of a large scale destruction shot including, smashing glass, falling paper, tumbling furniture, dust explosions using fluids, dust trails off concrete debris using fluids and how to bake and compile all the simulations together in Nuke. This course will be focusing on the FX Simulation and not on the photorealistic lighting in Renderman or Arnold or the compositing of additional live action elements over the 3D renders.
For any FX TD, this course will be fantastic for learning how to destroy buildings in CGI. Action movies today feature increasingly complex rigid body simulations and destruction fx so this course will equip you to face the most detailed and intricate large scale simulations. This course will require a fairly advanced knowledge of 3D Modeling, Animation and FX in Maya/Houdini as well as an understanding of file naming, memory and disk usage for large scale FX.
The course is taught by Liam Whitehouse who has been in the 3D and visual effects industry since 2003, graduating from Griffith University with a degree in Industrial Design. Liam has been recently teaching VFX at Griffith University Film School, and Nuke at Queensland College of Art in Brisbane Queensland.
