An original Ektachrome color transparency cel from the Walt Disney Studios live-action film TRON (1982). Featuring the background landscape for Tron's battle with Sark outside of the MCP, the Ektachrome cel was created at the studio and used during the production of the special effects sequences in the film. The groundbreaking film predated modern day computer animation and effects, requiring the unique lighting effects to be hand created frame by frame. The backgrounds utilizing these techniques are exceptionally rare as few of them would have been produced. This painstaking process was only used for TRON, making the film's effects artwork a special piece of movie history. Measuring 16"x20" overall and with the main image area measuring 6"x18.5", the transparency cel is in fine condition with a few small dings from handling.
