本教程是由CGCircuit机构出品的Houdini建筑粉碎模拟技术视频教程第四季，时长：5小时，大小：1.3 GB，MP4高清视频格式，附工程源文件，教程使用软件：Houdini，作者：Steven Knipping，共30个章节，语言：英语。

Houdini 是一个特效方面非常强大的软件。许多电影特效都是由它完成：《指环王》中“甘道夫”放的那些“魔法礼花”，还有“水马”冲垮“戒灵”的场面，后天中的龙卷风等等，a52的汽车广告，反正只要是涉及DD公司制作的好莱坞一线大片，几乎都会有Houdini参与和应用。

Houdini不光只适用于视觉特效的制作，随着HOUDINI适用于各种平台，并且出现了很多的HOUDINI培训教学，HOUDINI开始进入了动态图像设计领域。因为其自身的流程化特性，加上其强大的动力学系统，让HOUDINI在数据可视化方面占有一席重要的地位，让图形设计师能够通过它表达自己的观点。

CGCIRCUIT APPLIED HOUDINI RIGIDS IV TERRAIN DESTRUCTION

Applied Houdini is a production quality oriented series created by Steven Knipping (vimeo.com/161576184), currently a Senior Rigid Body Destruction / FX Technical Director at Lucasfilm’s Industrial Light & Magic (Rogue One, Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Avengers: Age of Ultron). Benefit from production proven workflows while also getting an in depth explanation of why things works they way they do. Best of all – each video is crammed with actual information and footnotes instead of gratuitous talking and dead space!

In Rigids IV, we’re going to use Houdini 16’s new Boolean SOP to learn how to fracture and subfracture (and sub-subfracture!) a large chunk of terrain that we’ll make from scratch. We’ll learn how to make a powerful workflow to surround this new production studio-class fracturing tool, as just knowing how to do the fracture is not enough. We will need to make every step of the way completely art directable, as well as efficient to create, to cache, to simulate, and to render. Along the way we will learn more scripting techniques, simulation tricks, and production tested tips in order to arrive at our exciting result!
