Adolescent Creates Animations for CMTs Country Fried Home Videos
CMT's Country Fried Home Videos is a clip show specially inflected with southern roots flavor.

CFHV brings bold humor to CMT, the authentic authority on all things Americana.

adolescent created a collage-animation title sequence for CFHV that plays with iconic images of America, linking them together with the wit of a Rube Goldberg machine.

The animation features cut-out characters caught in an absurd series of funny accidents, over-the-top versions of those captured on homemade videos: an older cowboy poses for a photo on the edge of the Grand Canyon and falls into a mountain lake where another guy is fly fishing.

This scares a giant swordfish which rips the fisherman out of his boat sending him flying around the lake.

Meanwhile a kid in a thermal shirt and dirtbike helmet tries to jump a log in a shopping cart and the swaggering man casually watching this spectacle is surprised by a bear that chases him to the CFHV logo: a rusty diner sign like you'd see on Route 66 advertising the best barbecue ribs.
