In this episode I'm joined by Ben Mears who works for SideFX, a visual effects company for the gaming and film industry. The focus of this particular episode is around Houdini, a popular tool used within both industries. However, we're going to put a gaming spin on the episode. Creating visual effects for games can be complicated and time consuming, but they don't have to be. With Houdini, you can use procedural, node-based workflows, for generating game assets and terrains. Ben Mears and I explore what exactly this means in this first ever gaming episode of the podcast featuring Houdini.
