-
Spoofing “The Lion King,” The Circus of Life
is the second in a series of Clampett Studio original art
pieces created to spoof Disney Animated films.
-
The Circus of Life reenacts the early scene in
“The Lion King,” where Simba (played by Kitty) is hoisted
above Rafiki’s head, who is played Marc Antony.
-
This piece harkens back to a Looney Tunes
past, where Warner Bros. animation was known for mocking
established movies, characters and world events. The Circus of
Life relives the cartoon studio’s well-known sarcasm; an
irreverence that other cartoon studios of the time dared not
attempt.
-
The Circus of Life was drawn by Juan Ortiz,
and hand-inked by Laurie Dindis. The original background was
rendered by Hector Martinez.
