Fantoons Animation Studios is a group of like-minded artists with a shared passion for animation, stories, and music. Co-founded by Venezuelan immigrants David Calcano and Linda Otero nearly a decade ago, the vision for the studio was simple: create content surrounding music and tell compelling stories to celebrate it.

Focusing on the artist’s personal stories whether on the road, in the studio, or their journey, Fantoons uses sequential storytelling in graphic novels or animated content. With clients that include Rush, The Beach Boys, Iron Maiden, Frank Zappa, and Johnny Ramone, among others, Fantoons has also produced animated music videos for timeless Christmas songs from Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Bing Crosby, and others. With multiple film festival awards for their animated shorts, they recently celebrated their first Webby Award as a 2021 Honoree for Video Animation.
