VisionCon 2015 Branson, Missouri.....It's Coming!
Last Year at Vision Con we met a lot of really interesting people. Ernie Hudson from GhostBuster's was the highlight Guest of Honor. We also met Artists producing some kick ass content. CosPlay Experts showing how they build what they build. Gamers, and FANS oh my! Right here we met Satan as he announced he was going to run for Political Office.....gulp!
This years line up is just amazing. Here's a sampling of what you will see this year.
Alaina Huffman
Alaina Huffman most recently played Abaddon, a demon who was the last Knight of Hell, and Crowley's rival for ruler of Hell in seasons 8 and 9 of the CW's hit show Supernatural. Additionally, Alaina is best known as SGU Stargate Universe's Lt. Tamara Johansen, chief medical officer aboard the ancient spaceship Destiny. Other Sci-Fi roles include TV's Smallville, where she played Dinah Laurel Lance, the alter-ego of superheroine The Black Canary. Born in Vancouver, B.C., Huffman made her television debut at age 13, landing the lead role for a Fox pilot. She also explored other career options as a teenager. Spotted by a modeling agency scout at a local mall, she worked the fashion runways of Japan and Europe for several years before returning to acting. Huffman quickly acquired several independent film credits, including the crime thriller Pendulum (starring Rachel Hunter), Still, Night Dawn Day, Josephine, The Couch, and Indefinitely. She has also appeared in such feature films as Gunman (with Mimi Rogers), Serving Sara (with Matthew Perry and Elizabeth Hurley), Screen Door Jesus and Jack Hunter and the Lost Treasure of Ugarit (starring Ivan Sergi). Most recently Alaina starred alongside Diane Neil in the Hallmark movie This Magic Moment and on USA's Necessary Roughness and CBS's NCIS:LA.
Gerry Brolo Kissell
A former U.S. Army Combat Medic, Gerry has spent much of his career creating military art. But, not to be pigeon hold, he has shown his versatility by working within other genres, including working on horror and sci-fi comics like "Endtime" as well as the comic tie in for Xbox's hit game "Alan Wake". In 2013, through his own studio, Hazmat Studios, and with IDW and Blind Spot Pictures, he is releasing the new movie tie-in graphic novel IRON SKY. As well as finishing the historical graphic novel Bayeux, an engrossing and epic book about the battle of Hastings in 1066. He is currently developing as well as working on several new comic projects, three of which are with bestselling author Shane Moore "Apocalypse of Enoch". He is also serving as the storyboard artist for the forthcoming World War II motion picture No Better Place To Die, for Dale Dye (Saving Private Ryan, Band of Brothers, The Pacific, Platoon, Alexander). Dale Dye calls Gerry's art on the film "essential to the overall look and feel of the film." Gerry has also worked on worked on The "A-Team", "Army of Two", as well as creating and drawing IDW's best selling Graphic Novel "CODE WORD: GERONIMO" and the forthcoming "Endtime: The Arrival."
And is Debuting his new Vindicated Inc. @ VisionCon this year.

VisionCon Takes on Branson with Huge Success.
This is Visioncon's 22nd year holding this event and their 1st year holding it in Branson. The lobby was packed as fans of every venue hustle and bustle in and out of the variety of different rooms.
Its not everyday that at a glance you can see a Trekkie, a Storm Trooper and a Ghostbuster all at a glance.
As I squeezed by Freddie Krueger to get to the Art room I am amazed at the talent that is in the building. Photography was not allowed in this room but take it from me they are talented. Images ranging from fairies to Doctor Who.
On to the convention guest room where we run into our good friend author, artist, film maker, Johnno Zee of Zomular Media LLC and our own Jason Mansfield aka Binary Entertainment
As we wander the room we met several artists showcasing their work.
Nicci Fett made the long drive from NJ to come to VisionCon. She did a remarkable makeup job as she showcased her talents on herself. She was very creative as a child who grew to be fascinated by the effects in horror movies and said" I want to do that!" and so she did. Along with being an FX makeup artist she also makes props and costumes and is available for your next film project.
Check Nicci out at http://nicci-fett-error.tumblr.com

Ryan Wheaton, 26, from Springfield MO is an up and coming illustrator and comic book writer. This is his 2nd year at Visioncon. While talking to him I found out we are very like minded. Although a sceptic (like me) he is very open minded to the paranormal but believes in scientific proof, which there isn't much of on any subject.
You can check Ryan out at:
The gaming room was full of different tables set up with many types of different games being played by a diverse group of people. I happened across a table of 6 playing Cards Against Humanity. Starting front left and moving clockwise around the table we have Josh, Sparky, Marie, Plummer, Robert and Rodney.
Keith Rennaker received his degree in Visual Communications from Colorado Institute of Art. He joined Associated Theatrical Contractors (ATC) in 2005. ATC supplies and services the entertainment industry. While talking with Keith, he was transforming his coworker into a werewolf
ATC offers professional theatrical Makeup classes that cover everything from makeup looks for the runway to the application of full face prosthetics. Later that day we got to see the finished transformation of the werewolf.

I have to admit that I saw David from across the room and could not take my eyes off of him. From where I was standing he looked an awful lot like Matt Smith, the 11th Doctor Who, and being an enormous Doctor Who fan I couldn't resist a closer look. I am so glad I went over and met David. He is a super person with a great talent. His work is all original and he works in all mediums from pencil to sculpting, he does it all, and does it very well. He has designed for rock bands such as Avenged Sevenfold, Sevendust and Wednesday 13. This was his 2nd year at Visioncon and he came prepared with many of his pieces. Please check out more of his work at;
Last but not least was headliner Ernie Hudson, AKA Winston from the movie Ghostbusters I and II. He sure did bring in the crowd. There was a line out the door.
While waiting for a lull in the crowd so that we could interview Ernie, we met Chris Canote of Canotefilms.com. He was also waiting for an interview. Chris led the interview with Ernie and ParaPalooza tagged along. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=atlZivBU-RI&feature=youtu.be
VisionCon was a huge success and really worth the visit. If you can make it next year I am sure you will enjoy it too.
