Some sad sad news. Justin Wright, a good friend and fellow story artist here at Pixar, passed away yesterday. He was only 27 years old.
Justin - Your talent and exuberance for animation and life was inspiring. You will be dearly missed. But I know I'll see you again in the future, not just as you were, but as "a dazzling, radiant, immortal creature, pulsating all through with such energy and joy and wisdom and love as we cannot now imagine, a bright stainless mirror which reflects back to God perfectly…His own boundless power and delight and goodness" (C.S. Lewis).
Until that day my friend...
- You can see some of the awesome work he did HERE

Well put sir. Rest in Peace, Justin.
Great artist. Read an interview with him before and he sounded like he had a great outlook on life, and drive for everything he did.
Sad news, indeed. I'll be praying for his family and friends.
Looking forward to that time as well. The C.S. quote is a good reminder.
Thanks for this, yo; reading through the entries from others, I'm glad that Justin had good company up there for these past few years.
I've just watched his Portfolio. He was a great artist!
