TRON Lightcycle Storyboard Comparison Video

Though the original Tron was a commercial failure, it became a cult classic thanks to scenes like this light cycle race.

One of the most famous scenes was when Kevin Flynn (Jeff Bridges) was forced to compete in the light cycle game.

I found a video comparison of the storyboardsfor Tron (1982) and the film.

Check out the video after the jump.






I'm not sure who the artist is, but IMDb lists the storyboard artists as Andy Gaskill, Bill Kroyer and Jerry Rees.
