miyazaki documentary on youtube

found these inspiring Jules Engles clips. Jules was the former dean of Experimental Animation and was one of the founding members of creating the animation program at CalArts besides working at Disney and UPA. He passed away recently and I was lucky enough to get to know him while I was going to school. Enjoy! : )
