SideFX had an existing academic program that worked closely with individual schools and faculty to create learning programs and provide Houdini access to students. The program’s mission is to help students find meaningful jobs in film, tv, and game development.

The company is dedicated to creating positive learning experiences and has an academic program that focuses on building an education-based community with special learning programs for faculty and students.

SideFX is most well known for its Houdini software.
