Max to Houdini

Yup thats right guys while learning Houdini I'm going to try to make it easier for you to do it too. So the plan is to do stuff in Max & try to make the same FX in Houdini then explain it in REALLY simple terms since everything I see out there feels/looks like it's written in code!

So keep checking back for updates hopefully I'll have something up soon.

San Francisco!!!!

Ok its been a while I know but the Bug shots took up all my time & then straight after that I was offered a job in San Francisco doing Particle FX for a TV show so how could I resist!

Anyway I'm in San Francisco until the 24th Nov & in between being a tourist & working my arse off, I'll be leaning Houdini. No not the magician tricks, a 3d Program used in the UK a lot by Framestore & the Mill etc. Its a tough program to learn but work in the UK is slow for Max users & I would love to have at least one of the companies under my belt if not just for the experience of working for the Pixar's of the UK.

If you want to see our (mine & my fiancee's) travels in San Francisco check out the Blog......

Stay tuned for the bug shots (prob after the 24th Nov).
