CG Circuit | Advanced Particles 2 : Demon Fire Trails | Houdini Tutorial

Welcome to Advanced Particles series: Demon Fire Trails.

Some of the things you will learn with this course are going to be: 

•  • How to animate a static geometry along a curve, without relying on constraint networks
•  • How to setup particle and smoke simulations and optimize them for faster results
•  • Advanced Techniques for Particle advection
•  • Creating deformations post-simulation with with VEX.

Along the way I prepared different demo videos with examples, explaining certain techniques before we implement them in our actual project. These are marked with a “DEMO” in front of the title of the lesson.
