Dog Almighty
May 11, 2006

HustlerHope you all saw Dog Almighty on Channel 4 last night? [Thursday 11 May]. A dog-based animated sketch show using recorded conversations and replacing the humans with animated dogs in an Aardman-esque stylee. Following on from the success of internet phenomenon Dog Judo, which has had over 10 million hits to date apparently, Dog Almighty uses several styles of animation to bring to life dogs who discuss supermarket etiquette and their desire to father baby boys and who’d win a fight with Jimmy Saville, amongst other things.

It's the work of 12Foot6, which was set up in 2000 and is the combined 6 ft 3" heights of David Anderson and Tom Mortimer. They produce animation for web and broadcast and started off doing web animations for likes of Virgin Mobile and VW. Followed by ads for likes of Nytol and Virgin Atlantic and titles for TV and short films. They are also animating the Modern Toss series] YESSSSSSS!!!!

check out the Dog Interview on lovefilm.com. I like the dogs playing pool best. Like an animated Arthur Sarnoff print [Pic above: The Hustler].

And yeah! I haven't finished putting all the Cornwall pics up at flickr yet!

Watched the Doggy thing. Dogs in a pub was the best of the bunch followed by the judo dogs. The rest of it was average. I thought the Evisu jeaned magician was quite good.
