Defending a different approach to cinema, from then on Brault was part of a new documentary process that was equally technically innovative and artistically innovative.
He worked on several films that have become classics; for instance, La lutte (1961), which he photographed, edited and co-directed with Claude Fournier, Claude Jutra and Marcel Carrière; Golden Gloves (1961), directed by Gilles Groulx; and Québec USA ou l'invasion pacifique (1961), also co-directed with Jutra.
His interest shifted to fiction, a form he embraced because it “doesn't pretend to be the truth and therefore is not a lie.” His cinematography appears in several major works of Quebec fiction, including Jutra’s renowned Mon oncle Antoine (1971) and Francis Mankiewicz’s acclaimed Les bons débarras (1980).

While the bitmap buttons could be any image format you like (as long as you do 4 versions of every image, I, N, H, and C) you can't have a GUI skin without a transparent background and 1 pixel rows and columns between the various GUI elements.
