TRON Flynn Ektachrome Continuous-Tone Transparency (Walt Disney, 1982). Presented is a rare black-and-white Kodalith (a.k.a. Ektachrome) continuous-tone transparency prepared for the cult-classic, sci-fi feature-length Walt Disney Production of TRON! This rare cinematic treasure features the character Flynn (played by Jeff Bridges). The film's associate producer and visual effects supervisor, Harrison Ellenshaw noted that, "It is my recollection that we didn't use the term CGI until right after TRON. I remember that term is included in the Cinefex article on the film." To achieve effects, actors and sets in TRON were initially photographed in black-and-white. The computers at the time could not do animation, so the frames had to be produced one by one. Framed enlargements were placed over a light source and re-photographed through colored camera filters. In some of the more complex sequences each frame could take up to six hours to produce. This panoramic Kodalith transparency of the stage photography by DP Bruce Logan, was enlarged from the original 65mm B&W fine-grain film. The piece is displayed in a 26" x 15.5" glass frame with a window size of 19.5" x 8.5". All frames are sold as-is. Photos are not representative of actual frame condition. This transparency shows minimal handling, and it is in Very Good condition.
