Optimized VFX Simulation

A friend of mine asked me if I wanted to join him in a personal project to try out some 3D techniques, and I contributed by simulating the coffee and smoke. I had to simulate and render both smoke and fluids on my personal machine, so I learned some optimization tricks for faster rendering and simulating fluids/particles using Houdini.
