Earth Bending-Like VFX in Houdini & Unreal Engine 5

The project marks the author's first experience with Houdini.

Have a look at "Earth Effects", a gorgeous 3D visual effect that resembles an earth-bending attack from Avatar: The Last Airbender, created by Yuuki Nakatani, a talented Real-Time VFX Artist also known as ElegantC4 online.

According to the artist, the effect was set up using a combination of Houdini, Substance 3D software, and Unreal Engine 5, as well as the latter's Niagara, UE5's built-in real-time VFX system. What makes the project truly stand out is the fact that it is the first time Yuuki utilized Houdini in production, making the VFX a rather spectacular debut of sorts.
