michael Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 from vrljc over at the SESI forums: Hi Everyone- A group of us just finished a short student animated film, "The Potter," that we have been working on for about a year now. I had the opportunity to use Houdini in my role as the FX guy on the team. This is the first time I have actually been able to use Houdini in a production and it definately paid off. Here is a link to the film: http://studentpages.scad.edu/~jburto21/pot...ter_480x270.mov Everytime you see either a sparkly pixi dust effect, or volumetric breath effect, or bright glowy globs, that was Houdini at work. Enjoy! -jon campbell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Very sensitively animated, I think - very nice work. Well done, Jon and crew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mario Marengo Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 Hey! Nice job everyone! A lot of subtleties you don't usually find in student work (or some *cough* "official" *cough* productions even). Definitely stands out. Congratulations to the whole team! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevenong Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Nicely done! I like the use of the music in the short. Very appropriate & helped with the mood of the film. Good stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vrljc Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 Thank you arctor for posting it on odforce; also thank you everyone else for the kind words. It was a lot of fun working on the piece. I really got my feet wet with Houdini on this project. Looking for a houdini job now.... Here is a link to the film's site which explains a bit more about our team and our pipeline: http://www.the-potter.com/main/ -jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
