League of Legends | Sauvage.TV | Houdini Connect

To create Riot Games's new music video for League of Legends, Barcelona's Sauvage TV developed a groundbreaking tool in Houdini that allowed traditional artists to paint directly onto geometry, adding human imperfections to CGI renders. The process bridged the gap between traditional art and advanced digital techniques, resulting in a handcrafted feel.

I would love to see a technical presentation of the tool ! Do they have to paint frame by frame or are stroke locked to the geometry ?

[@289rk]

if you are painting on a geo its most probably locked to it , and i bet the workflow of this is not as easy as it looks on this video.

[@carlherner9458]

there's already a talk uploaded with them where they give a presentation, cant remember the name but just search the name on houdini's channel

where is the full video? i couldnt' figure out how to search for it... derp

The Houdini social media team, is beyond incapable...
So many videos like this one fail to communicate the most important info to me!!
Why not tell me if this tool is even coming to me as a customer and roughly when?
If this is yet another studio exclusive tool, why even make a video and showcase us tech which normal users can't ever get their hands on!?

"Ground breaking" tool but they will not share it, typical houdini presentation.

[@khomatech6428]

So make your own instead of whining here.

[@pavinivfx]

Well said.
Don't forget the fanboys complaining

​@@khomatech6428 Sure why not rewrite every piece of code of your programs too, if the cg industry shared and contributed to open projects the same way others do we'd be better off. Your kind of mentality is not productive.

@@edh615 look up 'hpaint' for houdini, same tool

[@khomatech6428]

@@edh615 What's not productive is moaning and bitching about industry leaders not making all their 300k Riot project hip files available to you for free like an entitled brat.
The amount of Houdini material that's available out there for free or for pennies on the dollar is absolutely mind-boggling and would take you lifetimes to sift through but instead let's sit and cry in the official SideFX channel comments section because a top studio isn't giving away decades of experience and R&D to every lazy amateur out there.
Talk about productive mentalities some more.
