Piper was written and directed by Alan Barillaro，previously working in the animation department. Its a wonder that he had the fortune to win Oscar

Movements and personified facial expressions are what drive this story in this fil

30、m. Much like the nature documentary, the continuous pulling of the shallow focus adds the sense of realism.

36、a bit in terms of performance in order to have a really positive team experience.”Maupin and her colleagues focused on a group of MBA students to conduct their study.
