Reference gathering

This post is just to show the references I gathered to work from on creating my sprint start animation.

I used this image just to see the type of angles a person would place their body in at the starting blocks of sprinting, before the actual gun goes off for them to being the race.

This video helped me a great deal in referencing how an athlete prepares they body on the starting blocks, and how they position their body in the crouch position and then transition to the upright position.

I also used this image as a sort of rough guide on how to position the body within the first half-cycle of the feet from their starting position.
