Summary
Starting with a basic FLIP simulation which spins the fluid about the origin and injects turbulence into faster moving areas, we look at techniques to light, shade and render the particles like the recent Samsung s22 campaign.
Over the course of the stream a few different compositions, lighting setups and color treatments are explored as well as PostFX color correcting and grading.

During the live stream, I didn't connect the height to normal node properly which was causing the shading artifacts. To fix this, you can add a normal map node in between the shader connection like so.

You can read more about using MaterialX in Karma and Solaris here.
The MtlX Standard Surface node is based off of the Autodesk Standard Surface
For more details, see the MaterialX specification on the nodes, functionality and capabilities.
