Digital is expensive, from the computers to the professional software to the technicians, but digital helps me to create more beautiful images in less time.

I'd never make a film that I am not passionate about. My whole life, I've only made the films I wanted to make, even when I had limited means.

I'm a sorcerer because I start with nothing, and then, eventually, there is something. And I touch you, I move you, I make you laugh or cry, and you believe in what's happening on the screen, although I always show it's invented.

For me, the stereoscopic imagery was a new game to play with. Surprisingly enough, it's also a return to tradition. I'm back with paper-looking puppets moving about in several layers of theatrical backgrounds.

I lost so much energy in taxis, planes, hotels, phone calls and interpreters. Now, with the help from my little successes, I do everything in the same place with everyone around me. That's how a good job gets done.

The film industry needs to find a way to bring audiences to movie theaters. It's more of a technical trick than a revolution.

I won't tell you how many hours a day I work because you wouldn't believe it. But don't worry; I am in bed at 11 p.m., sleep well and get up early, without an alarm clock.
