A few days ago, natural light just brought you a perfect summary report of the end of the New Zealand Animation Film and Television Winter Camp. Now, natural light once again sets off hand in hand, animation art learning+Hollywood film and television production practice, and New Zealand film and television/animation summer camp special line experience! Bring you the most hard core background improvement, and finally get the tutor recommendation+learning/internship certificate!
Now, when we talk about Hua Mulan, we must be familiar with it. In Chinese textbooks, we are required to recite the words "haw haw..." in the full text of "Mulan Ci", which is more catchy. The Disney animated film "Hua Mulan" launched in 1998 was adapted from this song "Mulan Ci". The film has earned US $300 million at the box office worldwide, and has been nominated for the Academy Awards and Golden Globe Awards. Is the title of the international authority and aura for the 1998 Mulan series of posters the ultimate pursuit of every animation/film and television major? Now, it only takes 15 days!
