Introduction to the Houdini Interface

Introduction to the Houdini Interface

Introduction to the Houdini interface will break down and explain the Houdini interface for the new user. Most importantly, we will examine what makes Houdini’s interface so powerful. Much of this power comes from the interface operating much like a file system. 

Therefore, as a result, we can quickly move data through the network. Firstly, we will cover the basics of navigation and the scene view. After this, we will look at points and vertices, faces, and edges. Then, we will look at how to set display preferences.

The lesson provided is as a follow-up to a lecture for a class I teach in Houdini so the students can re-cap the in-class lesson. I apologize for any lack of polish. Hopefully, there will be some good information in there.
