Description :
Attributes are critical to Houdini. They’re like gin and tonic, Robin to Batman, like one half Velcro to the other. The bottom line is that attributes are what makes Houdini stand out from the crowd, making it more powerful than any other 3D software. The sheer control, flexibility, and freedom that you lack in other apps is what attributes are to be thanked for. Thanks to them, you can see what is happening with the geometry data, and directly manipulate them in a way that cannot be found anywhere else.
Of course, there are many courses that teach about attributes. But this one is special. In it, we’ll dive into the mechanics of attributes and not just discuss how to create and work with them, but come to a true understanding of the mathematical, physical, and computational concepts behind data.
You will have a deep understanding of the following topics:
what are attributes and why are they so important;
how the geometric context depends on and is controlled by attributes;
the anatomy of vectors and how they function;
everything you need to know about normals, especially in Houdini;
how to visualize attribute data.
