FX REEL - MUHAMMAD SAMI - 2023
This is my first-ever FX reel, everything is a personal project and done in Houdini, Redshift, and Nuke.
FX REEL - MUHAMMAD SAMI - 2023
This is my first-ever FX reel, I had so much fun making all of these shots. As a self-taught artist, I couldn't believe I could get this far. I'm aware that I still have a ton of things to learn and to do, but hopefully with this reel I can show you that I'm comfortable with my current skill and ready to start my career in the industry. Thank you! :)

Mother Nature
"Mother Nature" is a result of my Pyro Simulation and Custom Velocity Field exploration in Houdini. The FX is inspired by Genie's smoke in Aladdin Movie, and the environment is inspired by ONI from Tonko House.
Dragon Landing
This is my first large-scale pyro project, the objective was to make 2 different Pyro sims interact with each other, in this case the fire breath pushes the ground dust away. I also created velocity fields from the dragon so the ground dust can be affected by the dragon movement. the scene animation is from rebelway fx challenge, but I didn't participate in the contest.
Lava Revealing Effect
This is my R&D for a revealing effect for product animation done in Houdini. The objective was to reveal the product with lava or molten steel fluid that hardens into a crust over time. The hardening process is fastened to shorten the clip just for the demo. The shading is done in Redshift by stacking a bunch of noises and driving it with age and viscosity attributes.
Dreamy Skincare Product Animation
I challenged myself to create a skincare product animation with dreamy and magical as the main theme. The objective was to capture the magical transformation and dreamy emotion of the product by blending the sense of contrast and the softness of the product. Particle effects and mini-environment design are the main focus of this project.
Waiting to be discovered
"Waiting to be Discovered" is my first artwork after I get comfortable using Houdini. This is the first time I can create something I imagined, not relying on tutorials, and start making my own work from imagination.
