How exactly did filmmakers crank up the urgency for Sam Flynn’s sleek ride? SoundWorks Collection, which creates interesting videos that dig into movie audio, checked in with Tron: Legacy sound designer Steve Boeddeker for the back story, which will be unveiled Monday on the SoundWorks site.
In the video teaser above, Boeddeker describes his inspiration for the Tron sequel trailer that famously wowed geeks when it bowed at Comic-Con International in San Diego. SoundWorks’ upcoming full-length video reveals why Boedekker favored real-world motorcycle sounds over digital trickery to give the light cycles their oomph, while other audio wizards describe how they made human voices sound more, or less, robotic.
Tron: Legacy opens Dec. 17.
