@SpatiallyMe Fantastic idea. Love the vid.

[Jayse Hansen @jayse_]

@phantom4869X That's a good sound. Also, the thumping of the Recognizer in the theater was grade-A

[Jayse Hansen @jayse_]

@yesadok Proved to be very flexible and distinctive on this one.

How do you unify a UI across vehicles, command centers, and character HUDs?

For TRON: ARES, the answer was: puppeteering control rods.

My last post was the highest-reaching post I’ve ever shared. Thanks to everyone who shared and jumped into the comments. ✨🙌✨

I served as UI Design Lead/Director and Ul System Architect on TRON: ARES, designing the core Ul languages that span every character, vehicle, and machine across 260+ shots.

Excited we can finally share it!
TRON: ARES, NOW streaming!

This work was brought to life by an incredible VFX/GFX team we built from scratch, led by GMUNK

@darkblueorchids More to come! Thanks for letting me know it's not a waste of time! (breaking down projects is almost more involved than doing them in the first place!)

[Jayse Hansen @jayse_]

@DigitizedUser Thanks man! Appreciate that!

Next week I'll show you the design sys used in the Light Cycles, Recognizer and Athena holograms.

[Jayse Hansen @jayse_]

Initially, Ares is a pure machine, yet grows to be more human-like. So the design follows the idea that 'AI is continually building, generating and updating.'
To match Ares' duality, I designed the UI to be half human-readable, (language) and half machine-readable (code/patterns).
To illustrate the generative aspect, I chose to make the UI very architectural: Like a scaffolding, or a building always under construction.

@flyosity That’s a good one!
