Tastefully Yours is a South Korean romcom that has gained significant popularity on Netflix, becoming the most-watched series in 21 countries. The series features an engaging introduction with a combination of 3D animation and 2D characters, crafted by Giantstep and Studio Pivote. The animation reflects a single day at the show's restaurant, Jeongje, showcasing a miniature environment. This blend of 3D and 2D styles enhances the storytelling, capturing the character dynamics and overall warm tone of the series, while emphasizing the theme of harmonizing relationships.
Created by Giantstep with 2D character animation from Studio Pivote under animation director Jeyoon Jung, the Tastefully Yours animation sequence is built around the idea of a single day at Jeongje, the K-drama's restaurant setting.
The decision to mix the precision of 3D with the expressive boldness of 2D animation was taken to reflect and amplify the tone of the show.
We put just as much thought into how these two visual styles - 3D and 2D - could live together. By blending the two into one cohesive flow, we hoped to visually reflect the theme of 'harmonizing relationships'.
Close attention was paid to lighting to reflect the transition from morning to night and also capture the analog charm of the miniatures.
