Tron Legacy (2010) Year: 2010 Tron Legacy permalink I spent a half year writing software art to generate special effects for Tron Legacy, working at Digital Domain with Bradley "GMUNK" Munkowitz, Jake Sargeant, and David "dlew" Lewandowski. This page has taken a long time to be published because I've had to await clearance. Interview with GMUNK about the team's process In addition to visual effects, I was asked to record myself using a unix terminal doing technologically feasible things. HexVirus is a spherical map of the globe that features vector outlines of the continents. The scoreboard was the first element I worked on. Fireworks, mmmm. For the portal climax, the TronLines app was used, but also apps like "Twist" from our team's previous jobs. I wrote a particle renderer that could make the head holograms slurp in and out of the data discs. When fixing Quorra, there was an element in the DNA interface called the Quorra Heart which looked like a lava lamp. "TRON: Legacy" © Disney Enterprises, Inc.
