Arctic ocean and whale flip simulation - Houdini

By far the most time consuming project i've made in Houdini. This was really fun and exiting to make, i learned a lot about flip simulations and simulations in general within Houdini throughout this project. I think the end result is really nice and i'm happy i got to do a little bit of compositing and SFX to this project aswell.
Rendered through Karma in Houdini, comped in After Effects and editing/SFX in Premiere Pro
