Houdini和Nuke视觉特效课程 Sci-Fi Growth – Houdini & Nuke VFX Course by Voxyde

本综合课程将介绍机械科幻作品的创作过程，包括几何创建、特效设计、渲染和合成。课程将使用Houdini进行几何创建，利用程序技术和非程序方法制作几何图形，并深入研究优化网格和准备细分渲染。特效设计将主要由粒子驱动，使用VEX函数和计时器进行粒子控制。渲染将使用Redshift，重点在于设置自定义AOV和合并体积通道。在Nuke部分，将组装所有元素，包括重建美丽通道、实现景深效果和注入体积效果。最终将制作引人入胜的机械科幻作品。

In this comprehensive course, we’ll walk through the creation of a mechanical sci-fi reveal, covering every step from initiation to completion.

Geometry Creation

Utilizing Houdini, we’ll craft all the necessary geometry using a blend of procedural techniques and some non-procedural methods. We’ll delve into optimizing mesh for efficient UV application and prepare for rendering with subdivisions.

FX Design

Our growth effects will be primarily particle-driven. VEX functions like volumesample, quaternions, and cross products will play a pivotal role. We’ll master timers for precise control over particles, and for the final reveal, a straightforward propagation setup offers both freedom and control.

Rendering

Redshift will be our tool for rendering, where we’ll craft materials using provided textures. The focus will be on setting up custom AOVs, exporting attributes and textures as separate passes, and incorporating a simple volumetric pass for added ambiance.

Compositing

In the Nuke segment, we’ll assemble all elements. Reconstructing the beauty pass from split AOVs, we’ll integrate custom passes, implement depth of field effects, and infuse volumetric effects. Additionally, we’ll craft a 3D fog environment using Nuke’s particle system to enhance our volumetric pass, concluding with additional effects for a polished final look.

Join us on this journey through the course, and let’s embark on crafting this compelling mechanical sci-fi reveal!
