Houdini Tech Art – Vertex Density Heatmap

This course is a Houdini Only course. In this course you will learn how to create a Vertex Density Heatmap, which is a simple tool to visualize the Vertex Count of a mesh, and can be used to help optimize a mesh, or for motion design purposes.

This course is a great way to get started with Houdini, and get started as a Technical Artist. Everything done here will achievable with Houdini Apprentice which is totally free.

We will cover a lot of aspect of Houdini, and I’ll try my best to explain everything used to achieve the tool.

Covered topics :

• What’s is a context ? ( SOP, VOP, Scene…)
• What’s an attribute ?
• Basic VOP
• Example of more advanced VEX
• Attribute promotion
