THURSDAY, 7/21  

 

Impact Winter: Sound to Page 

10AM – 11AM, Room 9 

Impact Winter, Audible’s hit audio series from writer/director Travis Beacham (Pacific Rim, Carnival Row), takes place 10 years after a comet strike blacked out the sun, and vampires have emerged in the darkness to take over what remains of the world. One vampire hunter, a young woman named Darcy, is lured by a powerful vampire overlord and thrust into a fight for her people’s future. Executive produced by Skybound Entertainment (The Walking Dead) and Anonymous Content (True Detective), Impact Winter delivers binaural audio, original music and incomparable sound design, all of which bring to life this post-apocalyptic world in visceral detail. Join the team as they spill secrets behind the year’s biggest audio hit and its evolution into a visual medium via the stunning prequel comic written by Travis Beacham with art from Stephen Green (Hellboy and the BPRD). Appearing are writer/director Travis Beacham, comic artist Stephen Green, EVP, Head of US Content Rachel Ghiazza (Audible), executive producer Alexandra August (Skybound Entertainment), and comic editor Amanda LaFranco (Skybound), in a panel moderated by John Rocha (Critic and Host at The Outlaw Nation).
