I'm a big Star Wars fan.

I think it's the society that drains us out, and we are in a society where we are driven by money.

I wanted to do something that was entertaining - but with a catch.

That's a KORTAN DAHUK. That's the first alien we see in the film [Valerian]. That's another artist. The first one was Chinese, the one with the space station. This one is American. Personally, that's my favorite alien. I love him. I love his profile and his face. There is such a sweetness and almost a sadness in his face.

I wanted to prove that I could do something, so I made a short film. That was in fact my main concern, to be able to show that I could do one.

That's the storyboard that we have in the beginning [of Valerian]. It's an easy shot. It's just a spaceship coming in. That's the first layout. On the first layout, we see the timing of the shot and the speed. It starts to get some shadows, and we see that everything is moving in the back.
