Nicely done. Very funny. Dog blood and brains flying around

Please can you tell us something about how you made these animations?

Hi Rasheed

Is there anything in particular you want to know?

I draw all the art in Moho... sometimes I'll put a pencil sketch in to follow.
I know roughly how the dog meets it's end, but I tend to make the story up as I go along.

I find I have to take stuff out all the time, keeping the animation as simple as possible often makes it better.

If you've any questions, don't hesitate to ask.

Cheers

Paul

I have one - do you hate dogs or you've just came up with this random idea?
I'm not saying I don't like your cartoons - I love them! They are the only cartoons that have animal violence in them that I can watch because it's so over the top! Great stuff!

Hi Anatoly

I can assure you that I don't hate dogs, cats or any animals for for that fact. (except crane flies... eeeuurrggh I hate those things!)
It's just turning the Dog chasing cat thing on it's head... with lots of blood.

Glad you like the clips.

Cheers

Where do you get your sound effects from? Do you do your own foley, or is it just canned sound?

Hi Rasheed

I buy them in from Sound Dogs and Sound Rangers.

Cheers

Good design, good sound, good animation! In the umbrella cartoon, I especially like the smears on the the dog as it moves it's head around.

These are really funny.

Did you sell these to some company for mobile viewing? Who are they and how did you do it?

Great, inspirational work.

I agree. These are all-around very funny and polished, but this part was stand-out for me.

Great job!

very good cartoon, I'm cat lover, so after all mistreatment of cats in Tom and Jerry,
Oggy, Sylvester etc, it had to happen, CATS RULE!!!

great!! I think it's hilarious to always end on the brain's dog!
I was wondering if you could share to the community a little bit about your workflow. How do you create your step frames (like the head turning)? Do you use the switch layer system? I am a still learning and I wish I could see how is your moho foles. But that may be asking too much maybe.
Keep doing great works!!
