The best machine to create worlds with SideFX Houdini
SideFX Houdini* is a powerful and versatile 3D software used in the creative industries. From Game of Thrones to Frozen, to Avengers: Engame or Call of Duty, Houdini is everywhere in film, television, and game development. Unlike some other 3D software, Houdini uses a procedural workflow, where you create effects and animations by building networks of nodes instead of manipulating objects directly. This allows for more flexibility and control. And makes Houdini unique in the creation pipeline.
The industry standard for VFX
Houdini excels at creating complex simulations and visual effects, including fluids, fire, smoke, destruction, crowds, and even clothing simulations. It offers a wide range of tools specifically designed for these tasks, making it a true industry standard among VFX artists. Its main strengths are:
Procedural workflow that allows flexibility and control
Powerful simulation engine that accurately reproduces real life physics, from fluids to dynamics or crowds
Procedural Textures and Materials: create intricate details and patterns without manual sculpting
Versatile set of tools: while excelling in effects, Houdini also handles modeling, animation, rendering, etc.
Connect anywhere from any device
You can use your legacy device, mobile devices, 3rd party equipment (coworking space, friends & family), or even more simply, from a web browser. This flexibility allows you to start working from one place, then move and continue working from a mobile or tablet, and even show and demonstrate your content from your prospect's device without any installation or data transfer.
