Houdini Sand Timer – Modeling, Sand Simulation & Rendering

What you'll learn
Model a complete hourglass in Houdini, including the glass body and wooden base.
Simulate realistic sand movement and prepare the cache for smooth playback.
Apply materials, set up lighting, and render the project using Karma.
Build a full FX workflow project from scratch and export a final polished render.
Combine modeling and simulation techniques to build a complete project.
Requirements
Basic familiarity with Houdini is helpful but not required. Beginners can follow along.
Houdini installed on your computer (Apprentice or Indie version works fine).
A computer capable of running 3D simulations and rendering.
There are no special requirements for this course. Basic computer skills and curiosity to learn are enough. Beginners with no prior experience in Houdini or 3D design are welcome.
Description
Have you ever wanted to combine modeling, simulation, and rendering into one complete Houdini project?In this course, you will create a realistic hourglass (sand timer) from scratch, while learning practical techniques you can apply to any 3D project.We'll start by modeling the glass body and the simple wooden base, then move into creating and simulating falling sand inside the hourglass. You'll learn how to set up caching for smooth playback and efficient workflow. Once the simulation is ready, we will enhance the scene with realistic materials, proper lighting, and finally render the complete project using Karma.By the end of this course, you'll have a professional, polished hourglass animation and a strong understanding of how to:Combine modeling, sand simulation, shading, and rendering in one projectUse caching techniques to prepare simulations for final renderingBuild a complete FX workflow inside HoudiniThis course is designed for beginners and intermediate Houdini users who want a hands-on project that covers multiple essential skills. Even if you're new to Houdini, you can follow along step by step and create your own stunning sand timer.Join now and bring your FX skills to life with this exciting Houdini project!
