CFX Temporada 1 – Cometa School | Talleres prácticos de CFX

Introduction to Houdini & CFX Course

Would you like to learn how to simulate like a film professional?

Prepare to master fabric, hair, and soft body simulations and take the biggest technical leap you've ever experienced.

CFX Workshop Season 1

Can you imagine being able to simulate multi-layered clothing, hair, or soft bodies... and that this brings you closer to working in the real industry?

You're in the right place.

For years, many artists have avoided Houdini because it seems too complex.
I went through that too. What changed everything wasn't learning more nodes…
It was learning with intention, with guidance, and from real production.

🎯 Welcome to CFX Season 1!

This workshop is an intensive introduction to the world of Character FX in Houdini. You'll learn to simulate fabrics, hair, and soft bodies from a technical and practical perspective, using real production tools. It's designed for artists with a 3D background who want to transition to Houdini or start a career in CFX with confidence, clarity, and support.

During 13 recorded access sessions, we will guide you step by step through the process of creating professional simulations, developing custom tools, and understanding how to apply all of this within a real production.

What will you learn in the course?

1. Cloth Simulation

Learn to control fabrics with Vellum, key attributes, external forces, and prerolls. Simulate multi-layered costumes, a superhero cape, and generate a professional presentation with flipbooks.

2. Hair Simulation

Master the hair workflow: starting from a finished groom, creating your guides, collisions, final binding, and simulation optimization.

3. Soft Body Simulation

Apply what you learned about soft bodies to create simulations of backpacks or character fat.

4. Tool Development (HDA)

Create custom tools with Houdini Digital Assets. Implement corrective blendshapes, transform multipliers, and wind arrows using procedural logic with VEX.

5. TechAnim & Real Production

Integrate your simulations into real-world pipelines. Learn about deformers, efficient caching, and how to optimize scenes to deliver render-ready shots.

Do you feel ready for a bigger challenge?

Hey! I'm Erin

Your colleague and guide of Houdini and Character FX

I am a CFX artist and a Houdini enthusiast.

Cometa was born from the desire to share what took me years to learn: that Houdini doesn't have to be intimidating if it's taught to you with clarity, purpose, and real support.

This season is the starting point.
A space to understand how CFX works from the inside and start simulating with confidence.

If you're intrigued by the world of fabrics, hair, and soft bodies, you're in the perfect place to start.

✨ An amazing new CFX artist is on the way!

🚀 The setup is ready…

This workshop is designed precisely for that purpose: combine your curiosity with practical knowledge So that you can finally understand Houdini without fear, without confusion, and with real production flow.

✅ This training is for you if:

✔️ You have a foundation in 3D and want to master Houdini without fear
✔️ Are you looking for a real entry into the world of CFX?
✔️ Do you want to learn with guidance, without getting lost among nodes?

🚫 But it's not for you if:

✖️ You are not willing to practice and apply what you have learned
✖️ You look for shortcuts without understanding the process
✖️ You expect a theoretical class with no real-world application

🎥 Check out the projects you'll be able to create

Testimonials

What those who have already learned with us say

Oliver Silva P.

I learned a lot about the professional way to do CFX, how to use nodes, how to navigate the program, how to solve problems in the best way possible, and the best CFX tricks to make the sims look amazing.

Jonathan Monroy

I learned to handle the program better, to know how to simulate clothing with thickness.
