- Pixar animator Doug Sweetland, who has worked as an animator or story artist for every Pixar film from "Toy Story" to "Cars," will talk about the challenges directing his first film - the Oscar-nominated short "Presto" (pictured) - at the annual McMurrin Lecture, at 7 at the Dumke Auditorium of the Utah Museum of Fine Arts, 410 Campus Center Drive on the University of Utah campus. The short will be screened and Scot Stafford, who composed the music for the short, will also speak. Admission is free; refreshments will be served after the lecture.
