C4D ten times easier, Houdini ten times more powerful
Nope Houdini is also eazier the only reason it seems harder is bcouse its what you know.
i ws a noob and started with houdini.
and i can tell u C4D ux is a clunky shitty mess.
I started off in the digital world with coding, and for me, a node based system makes a lot more sense. Thus I find Houdini easier to use. Like Nic Tanghe said, it probably depents on your background.
Nic Tanghe the reason Houdini is harder for most of the Artists out there is because of how different it is from the rest of the 3D packages out there. Most artist get a headache when thinking about anything to do with programming. I personally love it but most of my collages and friends find it really hard to get into it
I don't think so. C4d is really mess imho
@@nictanghe98 I am working in Maya /phoenix for many years and i tried to get into houdini for couple of month. I wasnt succesfull. Everything in Houdini seems so complicated and more time consuming to me.I am more a creative person with no talent in coding at all. I always try to avoid it where ever i can, if possible.. Maybe i gave up too soon or Houdini isnt for everyone..
Freelancers be using aftereffects saying they "know" VFX
Ever head of Andrew “videocopilot” Kramer ?
@@Kareembablo Exactly, the modern daddy of VFX using aftereffects.
I guess you doesn't know the power of AFx
Amazing what you can create. Now I want to be an artist!
Great video. The one thing I would correct you on is that C4D doesn't have a great particle system.
That's why many switched to Houdini. When the x-particles plugin came out that helped.
Cinema 4D = Motion Graphics.
Houdini = Simulation/VFX.
Houdini = Make super realistic fire.
Cinema 4D = Make 'good enough' of EVERYTHING. ^^,
@@zfendi8922 Don't Agree. Houdini can do more than C4D.
What do each of those things mean? (Motion graphics and simulation/vfx)
Which one is better? Paint or Photoshop?
@@antoinelam9272 The satire but yeah why not learn each of both then
Thanks bro, I love your work
Glad you enjoy it!
I use cinema 4d,I find it easy and better to use of realistic physical motion graphics
Pls do a maya vs c4d video too... would love to know my stance as a Maya user
Can someone tell me HOUDINI FX software which version have to download.. please send me the details it will helpful
Houdini is the best software in the world at simulating reality accuratley, its just overkill for most studios unless its feature film or very high budget advertising
Doesn't really indie users use houdini? Just only big companies?
@@andreyshintar7722 no thats not true, small companies and indie use it a lot. Its not overkill at all, its way more efficient at doing even simpler stuff.
How if we use both?
Was this video really created using Houdini and Cinema 4d? I guess this video cut does not match in timing to the software
You deserve more likes and views
True
Very helpful, gonna take the plunge and learn Houdini
How’s it going a year later?
How's it going two years later?
Howd it go? I just started last month
How's it going three years later?
I use 3DS Max and After Effects for my projects, for product demonstrations I use Element 3D as well, want to jump to the next level, which one should I learn, C4D or Houdini ?
If you're doing advertisement and product demonstrations then C4D is the better option. You're already using After Effects.
Please do similar video about render engines :)
i will think about it. thanks
Do you need advanced maths to study houdini ? I recently failed my maths exam and you know how some people can get anxious when it comes to math. Blender and Cinema4D aren’t so complex when it comes to coding and understanding. Any thoughts ?
You don't need heavy math top work with it, but some basic math helps!
very useful
if some wondering where did he get some of his scenes like the pumpkin its from channel called Andrey Lebrov
i use houdini but this channel talks about c4d but its amazing
Great things come with great value.
But mostly, it's not worth it.
@@xanecosmo5061 i think if you love what are you doing it will be worth it just don't stress yourself especially if you learning something like houdini which so so frustrating so yeah in my opinion it is worth it to be honest but you must love what you do
Man this channel used to be a 3d modeling channel now its a comparison channel
now i post tutorials here: th-cam.com/channels/4-zFpG3B6sCRWrvRIFO_Ww.html
What’s the learning curve on these ? Months, years?
The basics of C4D, Blender, (now after version 2.8) 3ds Max, and Maya are easy to pick up with tutorials on TH-cam. Even Houdini.
Houdini compliments Cinema 4d via plug-in. Best of both worlds.
so true!
I choose Cinema 4D, Because is so compatible with Adobe After Effects. Good for VFX artists. 😉👍
Yes and if you need to work in movie industry you should go with Houdini/Nuke, Cinema 4D/after are good for commercials or indie projects
Your accent makes me wonder about your nationality. Where are you from and I also would like to know where you get these knowledge from. You have made dozens of videos comparing application which makes me wondering how did you learn so many applications.
why remove some tutorial ? i am learning to half .....
I can predict next 7 videos from this channel -
History Of Houdini
History of Cinema 4D
History of Zbrush
ZBrush vs Mudbox Which is better
Mari vs Substance Designer which is better
3ds MAX vs Maya which is better
Blender vs Nuke which is better
Great List. thank you
Lol you mean mari vs substance painter. Not designer lol.
Also more like nuke vs fusion and after effects.
WeskerRezo I just got confused Substance Designer and Mari.
And Blender vs Nuke because blender seems to be his favourite tool
History of blender, maya, max have done. Is houdini's coming?
Sure; why not
@@InspirationTuts remove some video ?
7:18 oh my
houdini+blender(only for Sculp and basic modeling ) = other all software
History of Modo.
Can anyone please explain difference between motion graphics & vfx..
Vfx is really an acronym for special effects that alter the appearance of a image or subject but motion graphics is often reserved in animations say a car chase or an explosion for example. But really they're applications in animations maybe specified to different areas but the principals are more or less the same! With that said, vfx companies such as Industrial Light Magic have moved along way since the days of using small scale models to achieve specific visual effects using props but they are still not entirely obsolete in the digital vfx age due to time constraints etc. With the abundance of green screen film studios using 3d Max, Houdini, 4d Cinema etc it is unfortunate that software's such as Blender are not normally preferred by film studios & filmmakers due to compatibility constraints!
Motion graphics are generally animated images, texts and geometric shapes whereas visual effects are the effects which give illusions of reality without their existence in real world e.g. gun flash, explosions, virtual fluids/oceans, particles, transformation can be used without actually shooting them on camera and only creating their virtual replicas in 3d softwares.
@@umersaleem9940 That's another way of putting it I suppose. Whether it's visual effects or motion graphics the possibilities in this day and age for young & new filmmakers and special effects artists are limitless!
WTF z that node setup 7:18 🤤
That is insane😆😆😆😂😂😂
these are probably each spider's leg.
Houdini is not difficult to learn. People tend to say that because they heard that and just repeat. It’s some confirmation bias. Houdini is like every other softwares. You learn it and that’s good, with some difficulties because of old habits, like other softwares nothing less. It’s very powerful but not difficult as most people seems to repeat. Sometimes, I think people like to say something is difficult because in our mind, more difficult/complicated equals more value in mastering 🤷♂️ but Houdini is not harder than the others.
For the Artist, Software are just a tool...the only limitation is our imagination
TEAM C4D!
No
Michael bay movies : Houdini
Everything else : C4D
Houdini.. Despite its learning curve.
This is such an irrelevant debate.... Its like asking which is better, a couch or a table. Like yeah you can sit in both of them, but hey have completely different uses.
4d, much like aftereffects, is only useful if you doing your own stuff at home or freelancing. Movie and animation vfx dont use it at all.
Also, In VFX pipelines Houdini does not replace 3d softwares, it works on top of everything else, that is why it was embraced into the pipeline. If it was supposed to replace Maya, it would have never worked.
Which is better?
Houdini
Arnold is the best render engine
Octane, Redshift and Vray. I can't stand Arnold.
its not the program you use is your knowledge that matters
Houdini will take over the world.... but i enjoy the fuck outta c4d
Houdini came from parallel universe.
Oh that's easy.
The only correct answer is Blender. ;-)
No blender is so bad I started whit it for one year and it was only suffer to make something and then I seen Houdini and it’s save me life
@@nancyvallieres4039 You need to take an English grammar lesson.
It's like compare dog and superman ....
Blender!
I'm just here to trigger people.
Blender is pretty powerful too
Maya : iam the better
3d max : no iam the better
Blender 2.8 : shhh iam the best
and the winner is a blender!
