Скачать или смотреть TRON: Ares Design Deep Dive | Production Designer Darren Gilford (The Red Grid, Flynn, Light Cycles)

TRON fans — and anyone who lives for art department details — this episode is for you. ⚡️🟥
Production Designer Darren Gilford joins Decorating Pages Podcast host (Emmy-winning Set Decorator) Kim Wannop for a deep dive into the production design of TRON: Ares. This isn’t a surface-level chat — Darren breaks down the real-world problem-solving behind building a futuristic, graphic universe that still feels grounded, cinematic, and practical.
In this conversation, Darren explains how the team developed the Dillinger red world, including material tests using stainless Dibond and a transparent candy-apple red wrap, and how CNC-cut panels (and even grain direction) affected highlights, reflections, and the way the set “reads” on camera. There’s also a great breakdown of LED channels in the floor, the challenges of shooting on glossy surfaces, and how the design pipeline works when you’re balancing practical builds + visual effects.
Plus: TRON legacy. Darren talks about honoring the original film’s visual DNA, the influence of Sid Mead, and how archival elements and design language from earlier TRON worlds informed the new one.
