Tiger Run Cycle - Jenna Beames

I researched big cats and their different characteristics and how this differs between each species. This lead me to settle on tigers, which are the largest of the big cats and are extremely powerful due to large musculature in their forelegs. I wanted to create a run cycle of a tiger with each movement broken down into about 21 frames.

I chose to look at a more broad idea of animals in sequential imagery, I decided to look at people who have rare species for pets. Especially with the cultural boom of the docuseries Tiger King, I have a heightened awareness about people with extraordinary and endangered animals as pets. Also the idea of the modern social media influencer advancing to a stage where the new ‘in’ thing is to have a crazy pet seemed like a fun idea to me.

I looked at the practice of Chinese medicine which has traditionally involved using various body parts of tigers to be crafted into different medicinal and pharmaceutical items. I have researched the different body parts that have been used within these medicines and why they are used. I wanted my final piece to showcase a tiger drawn in a Chinese folk style to gradually melt throughout the page to represent the use of tiger bodies in a grotesque craft.
