Director Saiman Chow took one month and GSK's themes "When You're Driving" and "When You're With Friends" and created two original animated films. GSK also provided the concept of the 'beasts' who are the essentially the architects of self-destruction."When You're With Friends" was inspired by Ryan Larkin's animated movie, "Walking," which uses gently moving line drawings and watercolor figures. Chow's film is a colorful contemporary take on similar types of figures and movement. The movement and the characters are organic and fluid -- even the beasts, who appear again in this second film, have a natural and kaleidoscopic quality about them.
Cypher Audio created the sound design for both pieces.
Very Ryan Larkin!

This is really well done. Good job.
That said, people should really read the description in its entirety. It clearly says it was inspired by Larkin's 'Walking' (though the creatures seem more reminiscent of 'Street Musique'), not actually by him.
Not to mention, the creator of this, Mr. Chow, should receive the credit.

This movie is NOT by Larkin, but it was inspired by his masterwork "Walking." Credit where credit's due, people.
