Starting from a doodle I did in middle school, used as a place holder character in various failed webcomics and cartoon pitches,
to becoming a failed webcomic in the early 2020s, I would draw this bug character constantly. I eventually thought the design would
work well in claymation format. These early shorts were a sort of test run for what hopefully would be a better series.
The first short Feturing Clay Models, Sock puppets and a hand drawn sequence.
The Second short made, Featuring my brother. Originally the short storyboarded was much more ambitious.
The Final short of these pilot animations.
Compilation of all three Fenton Fly Shorts.
Here you'll find a series of images taken behind the scenes of the creation of some of the models I made for these shorts.
