TRON LEGACY - COMPUTER REALITIES - 1982 TRON

Before the birth of TRON LEGACY there was TRON! This is a video that I found in the Films In Focus VHS Vault. It's called "Imagine - Computer Realities" and features the computers that were used to animate the movie Tron.

Hey.  Is a higher quality version of this avialble? I'm working on building up a Tron Filmumentary, in a similar style to "Star Wars Begins", but for TRON. I'd love to get this in higher-than-youtube quality.

@yorgle How fast do you need it? Go to my channel and message me!

Woah, this guy really threw this stuff out, thinking a ripped copy of it would be archived on Youtube? Hmm, he has an unreasonable amount of faith in Youtube being survivable media.

I made a copy of it onto Mini-DV.

Thanks for this insightful and nostalgic clip!

5:22 Modelmaker for Firefox with a scale model of the plane for the to be released movie.

5:28 Phil Tippet-Visual F/X Supervisor Star Wars V, VI. Tauntaun in foreground.

"When Tippett was told that Jurassic Park dinosaurs would be computer-generated, he was shocked, exclaiming "I've just become extinct" (a line Spielberg borrows and uses in the movie). Spielberg kept Tippett on to supervise the animation on 50 dinosaur shots for JP." -Wikipedia

@TMundo Probably when they were making the movie, they ran out of ideas and decided to replicate the look of the Cray computer in the movie.

hey! nostalgia kickin' in! I used to have that vhs containing some random shows, and these are as follows: Lady and the Tramp, Imagine Computer Realities, Dr. Zeus's Partufle Pak Where Are You, and one of the episodes of the Edison Twins that is cut off by the vhs end. Today, my family dosen't know where it went into hiding, assuming that it is destroyed by unlikely hands. You have my thanks for putting this vid up.

Thanks for sharing it, I think it's a very rare video. But if you have a DV-copy of this, pleeease upload it again in at least 480p resolution and better sound bitrate! Thanks

Logic lesson: the guy who said that computers graphics wouldn't replace miniatures wasn't "wrong". He carefully qualified it with a large margin caveat: "Until something really dramatic happens". It is true that miniatures weren't replaced until something dramatic happened in the ability of the CG to look more realistic. So he was exactly right. For him to have been wrong, we would have had to see miniatures replaced with CG which wasn't dramatically realistic.
