A 2-layer Ektachrome continuous-tone transparency cel from the Disney Studios film "TRON" (1982). Featuring the guards standing above the conscripts in their pit cells, 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. This painstaking process was only used for "TRON," making the film's effects artwork a special piece of movie history. Measuring 12.5"x20" overall, with the character image measuring 5.75"x9", the transparency cel is in very good condition with some minor surface scratches and production tape on the top corners of one layer, resulting in adhesive residue in the surrounding area.
