Aliens to Zombies Convention

Emmy Award winning special effects artist Todd Masters, founder of MASTERSFX, and Bruce Haring, founder of JM Northern Media, have teamed up for the world’s first “Aliens to Zombies” Convention, a two day-long look at monsters and the post-apocalyptic world. A highlight of the event will be the revival of Masters’ infamous “Monster-Makers Bash” costume party, which annually attracts the industry’s top special effects artists. Panels include industry insiders like Bryce Zabel (producer of NBC’s “Dark Skies”); actor Michael Rooker of “The Walking Dead” series; Oscar winning monster makers/partners Alec Gillis and Tom Woodruff, Jr., of ADI, Inc. (the “Alien” films, “X-Files: The Movie,” and “The Thing” [2011]); Todd Masters (FX creator for "Falling Skies" and "True Blood") and more.
