NATALIE VILLARREAL

I wanted to evoke a sense of nostalgia with this project. It was my first crack at Houdini, and between the instancing and water simulations, the project has certainly been one of the most challenging technically. With the help of my peers and instructor, I was able to reduce the render time from 60min to 5min, and optimize the heightfields, scattering, and simulations without sacrificing quality.
