Tech Tuesday: TRON
I’m constantly amazed by the advancing technology of our world. As my mother says, “It’s scary.” While I don’t find nearly as “scary” as she might, I am nonetheless mesmerized by what can be done with the tools available to graphic designers, filmmakers and visual effects masters.
This weekend, Tron: Legacy, the sequel to the 80′s epic movie Tron, hits theaters. Making a special appearance is the same Jeff Bridges who appeared in the original. What I mean by that is that the visual effects team has used today’s technology to de-age Bridges to make him look like his 30-year old self again. You can read more about this on MSN.com, where you can also watch a video to see how they did it.
You can catch Tron: Legacy in theaters on December 17th.
Drop some love in the comments telling us what some of your favorite technological advances of the past decade have been.
