Flynn's Trip Into the Computer Realm

These concept boards, drawn by Jerry Rees, visualized how bits of the digitized Flynn might flow down the data stream to begin his journey in the computer domain. The white bits represent ordinary data. The yellow bits represent Flynn.

These 4.5 x 9 inch panels were pinned up at Disney as part of the general exploration of ideas prior to animation beginning on the sequence.
