Join us for an exciting evening at the Austin Houdini Users Group (AHUG) as we dive into the world of cinematic visual effects creation using Houdini. Whether you're a seasoned 3D artist, FX artist, game designer, or motion graphics enthusiast, this event is perfect for anyone looking to enhance their skills in 3D and VFX.

Talk 1:
Procedural Primer for Artists
More and more game designers and developers are using Houdini's procedural workflows for high quality, art-directable FX, modelling, and world building. In this quick primer, learn how technical artists can develop powerful procedural tools in Houdini - and share them with game artists throughout the studio. These tools can then be used with platforms such as Unreal or Unity where artists interact with procedural assets while Houdini works under the hood to cook the nodes. This workflow ensures that assets stay procedural as long as possible, even deep into production. Learn what types of tools are best suited to proceduralism, how these assets can be set up for artistic control and what artists should ask when requesting procedural tools from technical artists.

Don't miss this opportunity to network with industry professionals, connect with fellow CG enthusiasts, and expand your knowledge in the exciting world of Houdini and VFX. Whether you're a beginner just starting out or a seasoned professional, there's something for everyone at AHUG. Join us and take your visual effects skills to the next level!

We will supply Food and Drinks for attendees! Be responsible!
