Galaxy Simulation | Created in Houdini FX + Composited in Nuke FX

To Download the project files, hit LIKE, SUBSCRIBE and Contact me on: https://www.niccokuc.com In this cinematic sequence, I simulated a sprawling spiral galaxy using Houdini FX—featuring dynamic star clusters, swirling nebulae, and a supermassive black hole at the core. The particle system was carefully crafted to mimic real-world galactic motion and gravitational pull. After the simulation, the raw passes were exported and composited in Nuke FX to bring out the full visual richness—color grading, depth enhancements, atmospheric glow, and lens effects were all added in post. 🚀

Tools Used:
🔹 Houdini FX (particle simulation, VDB, dynamics) 
🔹 Nuke FX (compositing, color, glow effects)

This project showcases the power of procedural VFX workflows for space and sci-fi environments. All assets were built from scratch. 🔭 Like, share, and subscribe for more space simulations, VFX breakdowns, and 3D workflows!
