Peter Quint's Houdini Video Tutorials | 2.14 GB

Its worth checking the Vimeo description of each of the videos (which is accessible once you've linked through to the video on Vimeo) for dependencies between the videos - obviously the videos that come in a numbered series are best watched in order - but also some series are best watched after other, more basic, videos. The Vimeo description will point this out. The comments posted on the videos also often clarify some issues, and point out where errors have crept into the tutorial.
