I am very pleased to announce that through an educational partnership with Houdini, Halifax West will be receiving Houdini FX , Renderer and Engine (Non-Commercial) 15.0 licenses.

"Houdini FX combines superior performance and dramatic, ease-of-use to deliver a powerful and accessible 3D experience to VFX artists creating feature films, commercials or video games.
