..devised this quote in 2000, which is Our Official Creed at OPINIONS ANIMATION (You can see this in the studio's front office, and herafter, it is also - in a slightly truncated version - MY signature here!):




No matter where you find yourself in the world,

You'll find art, in all its forms - film, performance, dance, drawing - is The Universal Language that bonds and unites us all..

For despite the eclectic nature of life..

Esentially, we're all the same....

WE'RE ALL ONE!
