Houdini Houdono | S2E1 - Procedural Origami From Maya to Houdini

Season 2 Premiere! In this episode, we’re shifting gears to focus more on workflows between Houdini and other software like Blender, Maya, and C4D, while also using renderers like Karma. This season is less about heavy simulations and more about practical setups that can ease your transition into Houdini—perfect if you’ve been meaning to get started but weren’t sure how.

In this first episode, we'll go through creating a procedural paper origami effect and show you how to bring models from Maya into Houdini. It’s a bit more beginner-friendly, so don’t worry if you’re fairly new to the software.

Looking forward to seeing you unfold new creative possibilities in Houdini!
