Houdini 是一个特效方面非常强大的软件。许多电影特效都是由它完成：《指环王》中“甘道夫”放的那些“魔法礼花”，还有“水马”冲垮“戒灵”的场面，后天中的龙卷风等等，a52的汽车广告，反正只要是涉及DD公司制作的好莱坞一线大片，几乎都会有Houdini参与和应用。
Houdini不光只适用于视觉特效的制作，随着HOUDINI适用于各种平台，并且出现了很多的HOUDINI培训教学，HOUDINI开始进入了动态图像设计领域。因为其自身的流程化特性，加上其强大的动力学系统，让HOUDINI在数据可视化方面占有一席重要的地位，让图形设计师能够通过它表达自己的观点。

cmiVFX Houdini Compositing
For a period of time, many high-end VFX apps were being adopted by several companies during corporate acquisitions. Some of the original CG apps were bought up by the same companies that owned VFX apps or high-end editing suites. During this time there was a need to power up the CG apps to make them more of a “One Stop Shop.” This phenomenon was soon forgotten by influx of new VFX apps on the market. Everybody was getting in on the game, and the splitting of apps began again, some by redesign, others by feature request. However, Houdini has proven to be an all around powerhouse for all areas of VFX. Houdini has the ability to connect 3D, 2D, audio, mocap, rendering, and more into one giant network of self reliance. This video is an homage to the world of 2D and 3D compositing tricks usually only known by high-end compositors. In just a few hours, you can take advanced tricks to a whole new level without ever leaving Houdini! When it comes to innovative learning, there is only one choice.
