Big Buck Bunny

About the film

A huge, good-natured rabbit wakes up in a sunny forest meadow, stretches, and greets the new day. Three rodents with a mean streak have other plans, and they turn a peaceful morning into a game of cat and mouse — or rather, rabbit and squirrel.

Big Buck Bunny is a slapstick comedy in the spirit of classic cartoons, built around expressive characters, lush fur and foliage, and perfectly timed gags. It is short, silly and endlessly rewatchable.

About the project

Big Buck Bunny was the second open movie produced by the Blender Foundation (Project Peach). It was made by a small team to push the limits of Blender's fur, hair and particle tools, and every file used to make it was released alongside the film.
