I Love Cloth

The FX for cloth has been going so much smoother. For the short we've decided to rig the cloth on the characters as opposed to simming it since we're aiming for a more simplistic style, but still decided to make the clothes in Houdini. Nothing fancy so far just a simple shirt and jeans but still really fun to make. Gald my real life sewing experience has come in handy, it makes patterning in Marvelous so much easier.

Still there are a few scenes that need really simple cloth sims. I made a simple jacket in Marvelous and recorded the animation. I then exported it out as an Alembic file to Maya and put a really simple texture and rendered in Arnold. Here's the final result.
