FX workflows in Solaris/USD

Video on demand
Importing FX data into Solaris could be challenging. Over past couple of projects we polished our own HDA wrappers which would import particles, volumes and destruction in most efficient manner without duplicating data. Also we will show how to destroy big environment pieces, with bunch of arbitrary overlapping geometries. VDB fracturing in conjunction with TOPS was technique that made it all possible.
