to make your next production featuring big cats a safe and pleasant
experience for all concerned
Rick Glassey
has
devoted most of his life to working with tigers, leopards and lions. He has the experience, knowledge, dedication and respect for
these animals to elicit the most from them... safely... for your next
production. Over the last 20 years Rick has accomplished some of the finest big cat work in the business, including "Sirga" (or "L'enfant"), a French film
about a young boy's relationship with lions in Africa, and
"Passion in the Desert", an almost-love story between a man and a leopard shot in
the Jordan desert. Rick made the intimate relationships between the animal actors
and humans believably real... safely... without the use of split-screen or
other technical devices. Some of his other movie credits (see
credit
list) include "Beastmaster 2-- Through the Portal of Time" (tigers
and black leopard), Walt Disney's "The Jungle Book" and "Jungle
Book II-- Mowgli's Story" (tigers and black leopard), "George of the
Jungle" (lion), and "Dr. Dolittle" (tiger). Not only does he
train and work his own cats but he is often hired to consult, run and coordinate
jobs and stunts involving other trainers and their cats. He recently completed
animal work on two productions for Birds and Animals Unlimited: "Second Hand Lions"
with African lioness, and "Hidalgo" that was shot in Morocco with
leopards. Both will be released in the near future.
