Price: $79.99
Duration: 5h 50m 53s
Level: From Intermediate to Advanced
With a price of 79.99$ and a runtime of almost 6 Hours this course roughly costs you 0.22$ per Minute. Without editing and testing of course.
In this Course, Steven teaches how to create advanced Sparks and lightning FX.
He generates the Lightning with the help of a Particles simulation. He also dynamically generates procedural branching!
He shows you a custom way of making motion blur of the Sparks.
In Houdini 19 a new node called Spark-trail was released which essentially does the same thing much easier. I still think it's good to know how something like this works under the hood.
He teaches various vex techniques and also uses four-loops which are very important for making all kinds of stuff. Having a solid understanding of these things will help a lot.
He recommends this course for intermediate to advanced users. It is very complicated and beginners might get lost at some point. I still think that this course is a good pick after doing Particles I and II and the Houdini isn't Scary Series. I would recommend doing it multiple times until you understood everything he does.
Like always Steve explains everything in a fun and easy-to-understand way.
This is a must-have Course.
After this course, I recommend doing Particles IV!
