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。

Digital-Tutors机构是号称全球最大的CG付费教程网站，2000多万次视频播放记录，顶级客户的优秀项目实例，被誉为教学和娱乐结合的最好的教程，RenderMan创建人称之为“完美的学习站点”，成立至今已经有12年之久，内容集中在视频制作和游戏制作两大板块，其网站完整的教学的理念，先进的技术支持（他们甚至开启了移动手机看教程的计划，支持IPAD/IPHONE/ANDROID），都让人耳目一新。尤其是多层级的教学难度设置，有趣的考试内容，时不时的竞赛，让DT成为非常活跃的一个CG机构。

Digital-Tutors Creating a Dynamic Wet Map Shader in Houdini
In this Houdini tutorial, you?ll learn to realistically show wetness in your object shaders. To realistically simulate fluids (water, blood, paint, oil, etc), often a wet map is required to change the shading of an object where the fluid comes into contact with an object. These need to animate, not only while the fluid is active, but also afterwards to simulate drying. The usual solution, generating a wet map, or fixed set of images for a texture map has several drawbacks: fixed resolution, color depths, and difficulties applying across objects or to subsequent shots in the film. This Houdini training introduces a new method for simulating wet objects, a shader-based method that first generates a 3D cloud of animated wet points, then by creating a shader that will use this data to shade the wet or drying parts of the character that were previously in contact with a fluid. This will be accomplished without any need to create or rerun the original fluid simulation.
