Last time I checked Andrew Lowell is no longer teaching the FXTD program at Lost Boys. Now they have two instructors - Debra Isaac and a 3d artist named Harrison Molling teaching the FXTD course, even the fees have gone up.

Thanks jamesr for taking the time to explain in detail, I appreciate that. I searched for advect points through volume, I see what it does. I will got through the Peter Quint and Matt Estela's tutorials. Will be back after trying & if I am stuck somewhere.

Hello all, I hope everyone is doing well. I am very new to houdini, currently trying to learn procedural modeliing. I want to try this effect for a personal project. https://vimeo.com/100831474 I don't want spoon feeding, just a push in the right direction to get started. How do I achieve this? where and what to start with? particles emitting smoke? I tried searching for tutorials, but I donno what to search for, so I came here for help. I would be grateful for any help from the community. Thanks.

Hello Guys, I hope all are doing well. I'm prtmsh, new to the cg/vfx industry, currently an intern learning camera tracking and matchmoving. I started with matchmoving to get my foot in the door, but I aspire to be an FX artist. My question is related to what learning path to follow. I have very basic knowledge of modelling in Maya and 3ds Max. I cant afford to attend any VFX/CG school, mostly watch youtube and Digital tutors. Should I first learn to create particle sims like fire,smoke etc in Max/Maya and once i'm good at that look for a junior level job, and slowly move on to Houdini. Will knowledge of Max and its FX plugins help me towards understanding Houdini better? I am aware I can start with Houdini directly, but reading from posts here I suppose i'll have to study Math and python as well. Kindly excuse me if my question is redundant or too noobish, I have very beginner level knowledge of what CG/VFX is. I would appreciate your advice. Thanks & Regards.
