Lollipop

2024.03

3D VFX 3D modelling, Animation Blender, After Effects, CapCut

A playful 3D animation in which lollipops disperse and gather through changing force fields, synchronized to music.

Intro

For Social Media

I modeled these lollipops in Blender and added rigid body simulation to them. The lollipops disperse and gather as the force field changes, and finally scatter freely on the ground.

Lollipops were synced to the song’s beat in Blender.

After rendering the PNG sequence, I used After Effects and CapCut to add post-processing and visual effects.

Different cameras were bound to the timeline together with the force field changes.

I combined gradient, noise, and Musgrave textures to build the lollipop material. Motion blur was also added to the final render output.
