Premise for Final

For my final project in ANIM 342, Digital Cel Animation, I am going to do a spoof on the famous painting, "A Friend in Need." If you are not familiar with the painting, it is of dogs playing poker. I am going to implement a spin on it though. I am going to have the dogs appear as if they are part of the final table at the World Series of Poker. I am going to have it appear like it is airing on ESPN, with commentators adding their unique play-by-play of the action. I would like to animate this using a cut-out animation approach, similar to South Park. Instead of using the ESPN name, I am going to come up with my own sports channel to steer-clear of any copyright issues.
