This training course takes you through the entire pipeline of creating the Materia Orb effect. Learn to author the FX Mesh source content in Houdini and the textures in Substance Designer. Then you'll import the content into UE4 where you'll make all of the shaders and dive into Niagara, where you'll learn how to make AAA quality particle effects.

Skill Level
Houdini: Basic Knowledge
It would be preferable if you knew your way around the software interface, since I don't cover the basics. However you can create everything in the video since we give step-by-step instructions.

Substance Designer: Basic Knowledge
You should have a basic understanding of Substance Designer and how it works.

Unreal Engine 4: Intermediate
You should have some experience with UE4. I don't cover the basics in this series.
