3D Fruity Dogs

2024.01

3D VFX 3D modelling, Animation Blender

A playful short-form animation series combining fruits and dogs, created as part of daily social media experiments.

I post a short video to my channel every day to experiment with new trends on social media.
In this project, I created a playful animation series by modeling fruits and animals and combining them with music.

Background & Inspiration

Inspired by the music “Fruity Dogs” by Yiyi, a blogger from Taiwan.
The chant-like song combines the names of fruits and dogs in a rhythmic and playful tone. Many listeners describe it as calming and hypnotic, similar to listening to a mantra.

Design Process

3D Modeling

Different fruit-dog hybrids were modeled in Blender. Each character combines visual features from fruits and dog forms.

Modeling Details

Different model sizes and background colours were designed to match the shapes and personalities of each fruit-dog combination.

Animation Enrichment

Additional animated elements were added, including flowing ground patterns and colour transitions to enhance the playful atmosphere.

Uniform and Unique

Materials were designed with similar roughness and transparency to keep the visual language consistent across the series, while each fruit-dog still maintains its own unique colour palette and personality.
