Return of the Convention (http://www.nadobra.com/conv/, 25th-28th
March 2005 in Bristol, UK) will be attended by actor and stuntman Jed
Brophy. All profits from the event will go to The Red Cross who are
deeply involved in current relief efforts after the Asian Tsunami.
Jed will be available for autographs to all attendees and will be
giving a presentation and attending the Reading Day gala dinner. To be
in with a chance to sit at his table buy your gala dinner ticket now.
We are also excited to be able to offer a stunt workshop with Jed to a
limited number of people.
RotC are also offering the opportunity to attend an art workshop with
Alan Lee and John Howe and Practical Sword and Practical Shield Wall
workshops with LANISTA Ancient Warfare Academy. All workshops will be
fully participatory. To apply for workshops you must be fully
registered for the event.
Jed Brophy has been a constant presence in the work of director Peter
Jackson from his lowly beginnings in Braindead ("Void") through
Heavenly Creatures ("John") to Lord of the Rings ("Black Rider",
"Sharku" and "Snaga") and on into the future with King Kong. You may
remember him as the orc (Sharku) that got Aragorn dropped over a cliff
in The Two Towers or the one that suggested eating Merry and Pippin
(Snaga). Jed's son played Aragorn and Arwen's child Eldarion.
Jed began his professional acting career playing the character of Dr.
Jack Galloway on soap Shortland Street and also played Ramius in Xena:
Warrior Princess. He is currently working on adapting a screenplay
based on a book and spending time with his two children and the Rohan
horse he purchased after riding it in The Return of the King.
