"Let’s focus on education. The school as an institution is in a crisis all over the world, with students, who are not interested in traditional forms of learning. We strongly believe that the audiovisual will be the tool that might bring back teachers and students’ interest and passion for the knowledge.” - Laís Bodanzky
“The audiovisual is a simple and inexpensive tool able to help renew the schools’ structure, offering the students and teachers the possibility of expressing themselves, of learning how to work as part of a team, of mastering new repertories and syntaxes harmonized with the new era, and, especially, of developing a critical view and ethical values. Everything done for pleasure, not as an obligation.” - Luiz Bolognesi
