Tip: 🎬 Set playback speed to 1.25x for a smoother experience — LOL!

💥 Ready to step into FX territory? In this first chapter of the POP (Particle Operator) series, we explore:

-What is POP and how it differs from other simulation systems
-DOP vs Geometry Level: Where simulations live and why it matters
-Key parts of the POP Network: Object, Source, Solver
-How Houdini simulates motion, force, and velocity — with easy real-world analogies
-Common sourcing methods from SOP vs DOP level
-Intro to the POP Source node and different emission types
-Velocity, direction, variance, birth, and life control
-Speed vs Velocity vs Acceleration – a visual and mathematical breakdown

This chapter builds the mental framework FX artists need before moving to fire, smoke, or destruction.
