Guests

Dameon Clarke

You have most recently been able to see Dameon in many live-action roles on Castle, Supernatural and most recently ADIC Clarke on Graceland. However Dameon Clarke has been voice acting for years, on the video game side of things he most prominently supplied the dulcet tones of Handsome Jack in Borderlands 2 and Kha'Zix and Singed in League of Legends. On the anime side of the fence he has voiced Scar in Fullmetal Alchemist, Kazuma Sohma in Fruits Basket, Proxy One in Ergo Proxy and was the voice of Cell in Dragon Ball Z. As Dameon is stepping in at the last moment his events have not been added to the schedule yet.

Gary Chalk

Garry Chalk has spent much of his time in front of a camera, having roles in Cold Squad, Eureka, Stargate SG-1 and MacGuyver. What some don't know is that Chalk has an impressive voice acting career spanning more than 20 years starting with King Hippo in Captain N: The Game Master, Guts Man in Megaman and oddly King Gurumes in the 1995 Canadian dub of Dragon Ball: Curse of the Blood Rubies. He later voiced Man-at-Arms in the reboot of He-Man and Sky Marshall Wade in last year's Voltron Force. But most famously he's the voice of Optimus Primal in Beast Wars / Beast Machines and Optimus Prime in Transformers: Armada, Transformers: Energon and Transformers: Cybertron. Gary will be in Film Ink Features at 1:50pm on Saturday and 12:40pm in the Supanova Pop Culture Expo Seminars on Sunday and you can meet him at the Madman booth on Saturday and Sunday.
