Over a month ago I was lucky enough to attend the tribute to my favorite animator of all time, Ollie Johnston.  While it was nice hearing from his friends and families, the greatest part of the night came from the memories of Glen Keane and John Lasseter.  If you’ve ever heard Glen lecture or watched a video with him on YouTube you know what a wonderful storyteller he is.  He painted a wonderful picture of an artist who loved his craft and spared no expense in sharing that with those who were to follow him.

The following clips are provided in 5-minute segments and are not of the greatest quality.  But for those who couldn’t make it I hope this somehow inspires you as much as it did me.

A nice round-up of the evening’s events can be found here.
