ABOUT

Each year Nat Geo WILD presents a month dedicated to nature’s fiercest felines—big cats—creatures of magnificent strength, ferocity and beauty that are rapidly facing extinction. With visually stunning and powerful stories from around the world, get closer than ever before to lions, tigers, cheetahs, leopards and more as you share in their triumphs, defeats, and epic struggles to survive. From original National Geographic footage, we created a sequence of rotoscoped cut-outs that we used as stencils. We animated these stencils over urban landscapes and environments that audiences would resonate with, bringing big cats into our everyday lives.
