When people are very original, sometimes they are original as a way to resist the mainstream.

And I'm not a micromanagement guy. I prefer to spend my time doing other stuff than that.

When I was young, I would stay in my backyard and I would create roads and tunnels and systems. My uncle had a sawmill, and we had all sorts of pieces of wood, and we'd create a city. I truly believe that kids enjoy the box better than the car or the toy that's inside. So many times during Christmas, watching a kid, or even myself... There is excitement toward your toy, but then you put the toy on the side and something is created with the package.

My father had a Super 8 camera when I was a kid and sometimes he would use it. I did some animation with it. I did a lot of flipbooks.

I don't like to put people in a competition to defeat the other.

I want to see abstract art move. Especially in the '30s, you had animators doing innovative work, and I was entranced by that. It's basically what you see when you close your eyes, when you fall asleep.

My goal was to show that even if people work in a garage or a supermarket, they have very funny things to say. We never hear their voices.
