Canadian animator Ryan Larkin has died.
He made is amazing film called Walking which unfortunately isn't on YouTube, but here's a site where you can watch a short clip.

What made Walking amazing is that it looks like one of those animations where someone traced over film. But it isn't. Larkin just understood the mechanics of movement and how each person's walk had it's own personality.
