LOOKING AT LIVE ACTION

although looking at other animated walk cycles is good it is also handy to look at live action sequences, one of the best films for walk cycles that i checked out was "the wizard of oz" this is because the film has such a great contrast of characters, the tinman, such a rigid rusty character with very little movement, the lion, a contradiction to the rest of his species he walks with a cower and is always cautious, scarecrow, walks fluently but in some cases off balance because he is made of straw and lastly dorothy walks elegantly and like most young women. unfortunately i couldnt find a better clip of the movie on youtube that i wanted but i found some descent ones nonetheless
