Description :

Phoenix FD is a powerful tool for fluid simulations. Aimed to meet the needs of VFX artist to simulate fire, smoke, explosions as well as liquids, foam and splashes, it has now become universal simulation software for every production house. Phoenix FD offers exceptional flexibility and speed. With an adaptive grid, complete interactivity, a GPU accelerated preview and a fully multi-threaded displacement algorithm it stands out as one of the top solutions for fluid simulations in the visual effects industry.

Phoenix FD 2.0 now adds the capability to generate and drag particles based on current simulations. This allows the user to add even finer detail to all types of simulations without the need to increase the simulation resolution.

In this Houdini 15 tutorial, you'll develop the skills you need to get up and running.

You'll get the most out of this course when you're brand new to Houdini, but still have a basic understanding of general 3D concepts. We'll start with the first time you ever launch Houdini and walk through creating an awesome effects shot.

Along the way, you'll learn some of the most powerful aspects of this node-based software such as the key concepts of the Houdini user interface, basic geometry manipulation and polygon modeling. We'll also explore how to import geometry, create custom user interfaces, apply materials and manipulate UVs.

We'll get our feet wet in each step of the pipeline, including modeling, animation, dynamics, lighting and rendering to construct a dramatic FX shot using rigid bodies and fractured geometry.

By the end of this Houdini training, you'll be able to dive into the other amazing Houdini content in our library with confidence.

There's no denying it: pictures made with film have a distinct and appealing look. Every film has its own feel, a set of characteristics that create a particular vision of the world that digital pictures lack. In this course, you'll learn what makes the film visually unique and how to emulate the film look with your digital photos in Adobe Photoshop Lightroom. Using a sample image, you'll learn how to approach building your own creative look with intentionality, consistency, and personality.

---v1.0.2 MOD v1.0.1---
New Features:
-Added Stop button to easily close VMPPmaya port on Maya. It also closes any instance of VMPPmaya running after closing port.
-Added a textbox to both Start and Stop button to allow user to chose port VMPPmaya should chose on Maya shelf.
-VMPPmaya automatically opens from the shelf button and automatically updates the port number on VMPPmaya with the one specified from Maya shelf.
-VMPPmaya shelf now working on Maya 2015. Should be working on Maya 2011 to 2016. (Tested only on Maya 2015 and 2016).

Bug Fixes:
-Fixed the D button getting stuck and resulting to VMPPmaya creating Dome Light each time a material is sent to Maya.
-Fixed all materials that are in "PARQUET->Symmetric Rows 25% Double" crashing.

Changes:
-Added VMPPSTOP.ico to \help dirctory

NOTE: Before pressing shift and adding shelft to Maya, close Maya first. If the shelf stop working
or displaying, that is because you have moved the location of VMPPmaya folder. Press shift again to
re-add the shelf to Maya again.

IMPORTANT HOTKEYS for those who missed to read the MOD v1.0.0.0 README file.

A.Hold SHIFT key, the "TO HYPERSHADE" button will change to "INSTALL SHELF/ICON". Click on the new "INSTALL SHELF/ICON"
button. It should install the VMPPMaya Shelf/Icon to any Version of Maya installed. You should get a confirmation message when finished.
This should add VMPPMaya Shelf/Icon to the Maya Custom shelf and make easier to start the server just by one click.

B.Hold CONTROL key, the "TO HYPERSHADE" button will change to "REMOVE SHELF/ICON". Click on the new "REMOVE SHELF/ICON"
button. It should uninstall/remove all VMPPMaya Shelf/Icon from all Maya version installed. You should get a confirmation message when finished.
This should Remove VMPPMaya Shelf/Icon from the Maya Custom shelf and make it easier to uninstall the Shelft from all Maya version just by doing this.

C. Hold 'D' key, the "TO HYPERSHADE" button will change to "ADD HDR DOME LIGHT". Click on the new "ADD HDR DOME LIGHT" to add
a Dome Light to the scene. This will add Dome Light attached with HDR Image to the scene. (This was added to make test rendering faster).
The hdr is located at \img\hdr\austria.hdr.
You can grab any HDR image online, rename it to austria.hdr then put it at \img\hdr to change it's default hdr image but the included one should be fine.

In this Maya and RenderMan tutorial, we’ll look at how the lighting and rendering were executed for a short we created for SIGGRAPH.
Our goal with this fast-paced tutorial is to show you how our scenes were lit, how the final render pass was setup and the AOVs that were used as well as several challenges or problems that were worked through for the project.
Instead of going step-by-step, we’ll look at the overall concepts, various tools and techniques, as well as important tips to keep in mind as you work on similar projects.
By the end of this Maya and RenderMan training, you’ll walk away with loads of tips and tricks you can use to speed up your next lighting and rendering project.

In this lecture, Christophe Desse demonstrates how he uses Substance Designer to efficiently generate textures for his 3D assets. As the title implies, the goal of this title is to remove the fears and inhibitions that could arise when presented with such a powerful a node based texturing system. The first part of the lecture is an introduction to the tools, with an overview of rendering in iray. Christophe then delves into the main project where an airplane and pilot are fully textured using a simple but effective approach. In conclusion, the project is rendered first in iray within substance designer, and then in Redshift for Maya.

Learn easy modeling techniques and effective lighting and texturing methods to create some Halloween eye candy in the Tim Burton style. After making the component parts we look at how to set up a pleasing composition and use procedural textures, as well as create nighttime lighting with a ghost like feel. Here you'll learn how to work with different light types, negative lighting and balance light colors to get the right contrast for a moody exterior scene.

In the fourth part of our Bullet Dynamics series we create a shot where the bullet enters the shirt cloth and the bleeding starts. For this we set up a multi-stage simulation, first with the bullet hitting, followed by the cloth tearing and folding. Here you'll learn to time multiple simulations within the same shot and create your own cloth simulations in LightWave. This is a five part series where we take a project-based approach, by creating a sequence of four shots based on storyboards. We look at features of the Bullet dynamics system with rigid body dynamics, parts body dynamics and cloth, and how to control these types to get the desired effects, as well as rendering options with multiple passes for the final compositing. Scene files are provided, so the parts can be watched independently of each other.
