BRAINSTORM (1983) - Douglas Trumbull Collection: Pair of Framed James Horner-Autographed Handwritten Film Scores - A pair of framed James Horner-autographed handwritten film scores from Douglas Trumbull's Brainstorm.

This lot comes from the collection of the director and special photographic effects artist Douglas Trumbull. It consists of two handwritten pages of film scores rendered in graphite printed with "Brainstorm" at the top, along with "James Horner ASCAP." Each page features hand-marked annotations extensively throughout in blue and brown ink. One sheet features Horner's autograph with a personal inscription to Trumbull. These pages come matted in custom-made gold-color metal frames. This lot exhibits discoloration, fading ink, and adhesive residue on the back. Dimensions: (each) 27.5" x 14.75" x 1.75" (70 cm x 37.5 cm x 4.5 cm)Visual effects pioneer Douglas Trumbull was born in Los Angeles in 1942. After abandoning architecture for technical drawing and cartooning, his talent for photorealism soon earned him work at Graphic Films, an esteemed Hollywood studio for which he designed groundbreaking cosmic effects for the 1964 New York World's Fair. After seeing Trumbull's work, director Stanley Kubrick hired him to create animations and VFX shots - including the iconic Star Gate sequence - for what would become his seminal masterpiece 2001: A Space Odyssey. From that film's success, Trumbull became one of the industry's most trusted photographic effects experts, designing and producing legendary screen moments in such sci-fi landmarks as Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Star Trek: The Motion Picture, and Blade Runner, all three of which earned him Academy Award& reg; nominations. In addition to directing the cult classics Silent Running and Brainstorm, Trumbull later received a Scientific and Engineering Award for his high-speed photography process Showscan in 1993, one of two specialty awards given to him by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences before his death in 2022. 60 years since he first made his mark on global cinema, Propstore today celebrates Douglas Trumbull by presenting a selection of rare memorabilia from his personal collection to the public.
