Hi Everyone, I am really happy to announce my first tutorial produced for CMIVFX. The tutorial is about using Houdini for motion graphics and data visualization, focusing on the design trend of drawing connections between points of data. I think there's something in there for everyone to learn - not just people only interested in blowing stuff up I hope those of you who buy the tutorial will find it informative and make some really cool stuff! I am very excited to see what people will do with the tools they make from this tutorial. CMIVFX's site explains more than I will here: http://cmivfx.com/tu...ini+Connections -Adam

Yes, you can do this in Houdini. If you want to create convincing procedural landscapes you need a good understanding of a) landscapes, b ) noise functions, and c) shader writing. There is nothing that will prevent you from such results in principle but there is no ready made solution in H out there, as far as I know. In my opinion though it would be an excellent thing to get into because it touches so many important fx areas.
