It seems like a lot of participants are coming from French schools. I see very few Italians and (uhm..) I know only one entry: Being a King by Jacopo. The quality delivered by students of French animation schools is really astounding, I presume it was hard to beat it. Anyway I am not clear about the entries for the various categories: this seems to be a list of short films, what about 3D models, matte paintings and the rest? I will investigate..

Ciao,
Max
