Guest Tutorial: Dart Throwing

Paper Folding with Vellum
In this video Chris covers a simple way of simulating origami like patterns in Houdini and Vellum, just using edge groups and (depending on how you count them) three or six lines of vex. We can very much recommend watching Junichiro Horikawa’s previous explorations on […]

Building a Latent Space in Houdini: Part 1 – Theory
This week we want to give you a lot more insight into what a latent space actually is and how it gets created. In this case not by using Stable Diffusion, but by building and training our own neural net inside Houdini, who’s only job […]
Strange Forests: Creating 2.5D Images with MLOPs and Faking DOF in Pointclouds
Now that MLOPs is released and available for everyone, let’s create some motion graphics using those new tools and combine them with other workflows we already know from Houdini. In this video Chris shows you how he created these strange forest renders while beta-testing MLOPs […]
Simulating Curling Ribbons in Vellum
The idea for this video came from a question on our Patreon Community Hub, asking us how we’d go about creating curling ribbons in vellum, similar to a very beautiful setup by Playback Design. And, as it turns out, this is a quite fun and […]
