Man's Best Friend, is an animated short written, directed and animated by American animation director Ben Gluck. It was the first short he made while attending college at Calarts. It earned several 1st prize film awards, including the prestigious Walter Lantz: Best of Show CalArts - student Academy Award, presented by voice recording legend, June Foray. The film toured theatrically in the cult film festival: Spike and Mike’s Sick and Twisted Animation Festival, and aired in heavy rotation, on the popular MTV network series: MTV's Cartoon Sushi .
An animation director is the director in charge of all aspects of the animation process during the production of an animated film or an animated segment for a live action film or television.
MTV is an American pay television channel owned by Viacom Media Networks and headquartered in New York City. The channel was launched on August 1, 1981, and originally aired music videos as guided by television personalities known as "video jockeys" (VJs). At first, MTV's main target demographic was young adults, but today it is primarily teenagers, particularly high school and college students.
Cartoon Sushi is a Canadian-American adult animation showcase program that aired on MTV from 1997 to 1998. It was developed by Eric Calderon and produced by Nick Litwinko. The title screen opening was illustrated by Danny Antonucci.
The short is a satirical-comedic-parody on Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden. “God created man and for man God created a companion” - a dog. Once Eve is created, "Dog" gets jealous, then selfishly attempts to win all of Adam’s loyalty back for himself.
Adam and Eve, according to the creation myth of the Abrahamic religions, were the first man and woman. They are central to the belief that humanity is in essence a single family, with everyone descended from a single pair of original ancestors. It also provides the basis for the doctrines of the fall of man and original sin that are important beliefs in Christianity, although not held in Judaism or Islam.
The Garden of Eden, also called Paradise, is the biblical "garden of God" described in the Book of Genesis and the Book of Ezekiel. Genesis 13:10 refers to the "garden of God", and the "trees of the garden" are mentioned in Ezekiel 31. The Book of Zechariah and the Book of Psalms also refer to trees and water without explicitly mentioning Eden.
