Course overview
The course aims to familiarise students with professional practice and industry standards in dynamic effects simulations and production, and provides the theory, skills, and techniques to produce complex dynamic effects sequences. During the course, students will develop an understanding of key dynamic effects techniques and practices, and will develop advanced skills in Houdini and Unreal Engine, including particle systems, explosions, fluid dynamics, and physics-based dynamics.
