Description
TRON "Tron on Light Cycle" Ektachrome Continuous-Tone Transparency (Walt Disney, 1982). Here's a black and white Kodalith (often referred to by TRON collectors as an Ektachrome). Immerse yourself in the allure of Walt Disney's cult-classic science fiction film, TRON, through this captivating Kodalith featuring Tron himself on his light cycle. The contrasting interplay of light and shadow adds depth to the transparency, capturing the essence of TRON's imaginative world. The film received the Academy Award® for Technical Achievement fourteen years after its initial release. To achieve the desired effect, actors and sets in TRON were initially photographed in black-and-white. This Kodalith was enlarged from 65mm B&W fine-grain film, part of the original stage photography by DP Bruce Logan. Framed enlargements were placed over a light source and re-photographed through colored camera filters. The computers at the time could not do animation, so the frames had to be produced one by one. The Kodalith measures 20" x 12" with an image area of 19" x 8.5" and immortalizes Tron's valiant spirit and his integral role in the cinematic tapestry of science fiction. In Fine condition.From the Tron Effects Technical Supervisor John Scheele Collection.
