BURN-E (character)

BURN-E (which stands for "Basic Utility Repair Nano Engineer") is seen briefly as a welder robot in the 2008 Pixar film WALL-E, when WALL-E and EVE fly around the Axiom starliner and re-enter the ship through a door, locking him outside. BURN-E is then seen banging his fists against the door, ultimately realizing that he has been locked out.

BURN-E is also the title character of a parallel spin-off short from the film. This short was produced at the same time as the movie and was directed by the feature film's lead animator, Angus MacLane. The short movie is included as a bonus feature on the DVD and Blu-ray releases of WALL-E and has since also been aired on TV as well. BURN-E features music composed and conducted by J.A.C. Redford, who was also orchestrator on WALL-E.
