Description
TRON "Yori and Flynn on Solar Sailer Deck" Ektachrome Continuous-Tone Transparency (Walt Disney, 1982). "Elementary physics: a beam of energy can always be diverted." Yori looks on as Flynn rests after creating a junction and saving the Solar Sailer, in this a 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 Yori (played by Cindy Morgan) and Flynn (played by Jeff Bridges) in a scene that explores human connections within the bounds of a calculated software world of a mainframe computer. 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. Measuring 20" x 12", with an image area of 19" x 8.5", this transparency is in Fine condition. Whether displayed as a cherished collector's item or a conversation-starting centerpiece, this image captures the emotive undertones and the enduring power of companionship in the world of advanced technology that is TRON.Auction Info
