[Parada Pereira, L] Priscott, C This presentation looks at the development of a 'Automatic Compositing' custom tool in Houdini, from an initial problem to an intuitive and usable solution. Areas talked about include why Python is the TD language of choice, the powerful libraries it offers (including the use of QT Creator), and how these tools can be written and used inside Houdini. A case study looks at the implementation of a Houdini tool that utilises QT and python libraries to help automate the process of setting up compositing networks. A conclusion on the success of this tool is then given along with a summary of what I have learnt from this research. Online Notes [Houdini Fluids]
