How To Train Your Li'l Dragons, pardon, Students

Daybreak, Campus Urstein
Here are some first impressions of MULAN art director Hans Bacher's visiting professorship at the University of Applied Sciences Salzburg. Yesterday, over 400 students attended Hans' animation talk. What an animation art fest we have here.
