The Ugly Bug Ball

My new short, done for Voltaire's Stop-Motion class at SVA.
The assignment was to complete a minute long film including; walking, lip sync, flying, tranformation, emotion and clay animation. It took a little under 2 months so create all 5 puppets, 3 sets and to complete the animation. Enjoy :)
