TRON: Legacy Panel at SIGGRAPH 2010

The upcoming film TRON: Legacy will be the focus of a filmmaker panel discussion during the SIGGRAPH 2010 Computer Animation Festival in Los Angeles on Tuesday, 27 July at 3:45 p.m.

Panelists in the discussion include: TRON: Legacy director Joseph Kosinski and producer Jeffrey Silver, and visual effects supervisor Eric Barba and animation supervisor Steve Preeg from Digital Domain. The panelists will present a special reel from the movie and answer audience questions.

TRON: Legacy is the story of Sam Flynn (Garrett Hedlund), a man who is haunted by the disappearance of his father Kevin Flynn (Jeff Bridges). Kevin Flynn was once known as the world’s leading video game developer. When Sam investigates a strange signal sent from the old Flynn’s Arcade–a signal that could only come from his father–he finds himself pulled into a digital world where Kevin has been trapped for 20 years. With the help Quorra (Olivia Wilde), father and son embark on a journey across a cyber universe that was created by Kevin himself.

TRON: Legacy hits U.S. theaters on December 17, 2010.
