Thanks to First Showing for pointing out the following “Making of TRON: Legacy” featurette put out by visual effects house Digital Domain and it couldn’t come at a better time as Legacy was just short-listed by the Academy for the Best Visual Effects Oscar.
Just watching this video makes me wish the film had been as entertaining, but it also reinforces how great Daft Punk’s score is. Any chance they can bring home the Oscar or is it too niche for the Academy?
Also, if you like this, similar demo reels for Digital Domain projects have been available for some time, including Zodiac and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. I’ve included both directly below. And if you want more TRON: Legacy featurettes be sure to check out this sound featurette from Soundworks.
