Reference for Movement

If you haven't noticed from my previous blog entries, I love working from reference. So, once again, I have collected more resources to work from when animating the lion. However, this time I have searched for footage online of roaring lions. To my surprise I found very few videos which show the lion from my desired angle, but I guess beggars can't be choosers. (This gave me the perfect excuse to re-watch The Lion King)...

The most useful piece of footage I found was Mayer Goldwyn Mayer's renowned lion intro.
