Walking (1968)

Ryan Larkin uses a variety of animation styles to depict human beings at work, at play and yes - walking. Dressed and naked, and from different perspectives, we see his impressions of our stride, our expressions and our musculature (or lack of it) as we do that thing that was supposed to distinguish us early on from mammals. At times the artwork is ultra-detailed, at others a less defined - almost ghostlike image is presented - and all to a fitting score that reflects the pace engagingly. There's a lot of work and inspiration gone into this five minutes.
