Life drawing in Animation is crucial to an animator understanding the bone structure and muscle composition of the subjects he is trying to animate, this helps the animator to understand how a subject will move and to better apply the principles of animation to the subject.
For example disney have held life drawing classes using clothed & unclothed models for over 80 years for their artists to be well trained n recognising the human form and how material falls on the human figure.
Life drawing is not only of humans but also of animals and this practice of drawing from life has been used for example in films such as lion king and jungle book to help the animators gain a better understanding of how each animal might move.
