游戏场景中的VFX特效制作视频教程

使用Houdini、Mixamo、Photoshop和Character Creator为Unreal Engine创建一个浮动的幻想场景。VFX资深艺术家Keagan Williams已经将所教授的工作流程、工具和原则用于视频游戏标题，如漫威的午夜太阳。

本课程的目的是引导你创建由Keagan演示的幻想场景，同时也赋予你高效、灵活、优美地开发和表达自己的创意所需的技能。

这个课程主要面向初级到中级艺术家，是那些希望创作实时VFX作品的人的理想选择，尤其是那些超越基本粒子系统的人。通过这个课程展示的场景具有VFX中心元素，Keagan还触及了houdini的KineFX和Vellum的世界，以及风格化的头发，灯光，蓝图，等等。推荐一些基本的houdini和虚幻引擎知识。The Gnomon Workshop – VFX For Games Creating A Fantasy Scene

处理复杂的VFX序列需要时间的投入；然而，你会发现所展示的技术会让你在自己的项目中获得更大的创作自由。

你可以用这个课程中展示的角色来跟随；或者，您可以创建或使用自己的。当跟随本教程时，我们建议下载Keagan引用的(免费)Mixamo角色和动画。此外，Keagan还提供了在研讨会上看到的几乎所有其他内容所需的文件。

Follow along to create a floating fantasy scene for Unreal Engine using Houdini, Mixamo, Photoshop, and Character Creator. The workflow, tools, and principles taught have been used by Senior VFX Artist Keagan Williams on videogame titles such as Marvel’s Midnight Suns.

The goal of this workshop is to guide you through the creation of the fantasy scene demonstrated by Keagan while also empowering you with the skills you need to efficiently, flexibly, and beautifully develop and express your own creative ideas.

Primarily aimed at beginner to mid-level artists, this workshop is ideal for those looking to create real-time VFX portfolio pieces, particularly those that go beyond basic particle systems. The scene demonstrated through this workshop features a central VFX element, and Keagan also touches on the worlds of Houdini’s KineFX and Vellum, as well as stylized hair, lighting, blueprints, and more. Some basic Houdini and Unreal Engine knowledge is recommended.

Tackling tricky VFX sequences involves an initial investment of time; however, you’ll discover that the techniques demonstrated will open you up to much greater creative freedom on your own projects.

You can follow along using the character demonstrated in this workshop; alternatively, you can create or use your own. When following along with this tutorial, we recommend downloading the (free) Mixamo characters and animations as referenced by Keagan. Additionally, Keagan has provided the files needed for almost everything else seen in the workshop.
