That was a pretty cool article! Nice find, Sid Philips.
And here is an interview, which I thought was pretty good, of Angus MacLane, Supervising Animator of the film (odd to note all the arabic responses after the interview):

This would be a good thread to collect all the non-Stanton interviews…

And Sigourney Weaver’s nicely done interview at the London premiere:
This is another Ralph Eggleston interview, this time with art conservator and Disney specialist Ron Barbagallo and it is certainly comprehensive! Get ready to have a spare hour at your disposal to read it all. Has this been posted elsewhere here? Maybe it was at the walleforum.com site. I know that I’ve read about 1/3 of it elsewhere, perhaps in the link above.

There are really some beautiful pictures in this link, perhaps many of you have already seen them in ‘The Art of Wall-E’ book. The copyright on it is 2009, so it’s only been around for a few months.
And speaking of art: slashfilm.com/2008/06/22/coo … oster-art/
It’s definitely been posted at WALL-E Forum before, and I think it might’ve made the front page at Pixar Planet shortly thereafter as well, I know at least one Eggleston interview did.
If so, it still doesn’t show up under a search with the name ‘Barbagallo’, all forums. I also did a lengthy search with ‘Ralph Eggleston’ and came up with a handful of threads, and could not find this link (most of those threads were not pertinent to post something like this in). But I’m definitely sure that I’ve read a few paragraphs here and there somewhere. Anyways, I’m not the originator of this thread, but think that this is an excellent place to corral all the non-Stanton interviews… scattered as they may now be.
Here is some stuff about Ben Burtt, information about which is unfortunately scattered on this website, thx miafka for this link:
