Welcome to the Supanova Expo
In 2012 Supanova celebrates its 10th
Anniversary and more than ever it’s where
imagination meets reality in a fun, fantastic
atmosphere where the stars are no longer
out of reach! The actors you’ve always
admired, the voice-talent of your favourite
anime, the artists of those comics you can’t
put down, the authors whose writing keeps
you up late at night!
Meet them, attend their panels, grab their
autographs* or even a photo* as we also
weave games, collectables, screenings,
specialty items, wrestling, toys, exclusives, fun
competitions and more into the experience!
So whether you’re a newbie at our first
Adelaide expo, or veteran of the past nine
years in Brisbane, we look forward to bringing
our brand of fun to you! Get into costume,
or not, grab a friend and join us for...
Supanova 2012… It s a blast!!!
Yours in fun,
Daniel Zachariou
Event Director – Supanova 2012

Directors’ Day (Brisbane exclusive)
Friday, November 9th, is D-Day!
Thanks to FILMINK, Supanova starts with a
bang on D-Day, where you have the chance
to meet the creators behind cult films, games
and TV! Here's what we have planned for you
in 2012!
B-MOVIE MANIACS: Larry Cohen and
Laurene Landon in conversation with Dr
Mark Ryan (QUT)

some behind-the-scenes tips from these
legends of genre film whose credits include
Maniac Cop, It’s Alive, and The Ambulance.
LET’S SING...THERE’S ZOMBIES
OUTSIDE! Staged reading of a new
screenplay seeks feedback and… Brains!
Let’s Sing...There’s Zombies Outside! is a
zombie musical feature film. Actors will read
from the script while inviting the audience to
get involved in the production by giving
feedback on how to make this the best
zombie movie possible.
WEB SERIES MAVENS: Felicia Day, web
series creator, in conversation with Nick
Spinks & Lara Murray (Hoodlum)
Felicia will be sharing her thoughts on how to
create a winning web series. Considering The
Guild has now had six seasons and over 69
million views on YouTube, Doctor Horrible’s
Singalong Blog is a fan-favourite and she’s now
producing The Flog, we dare not miss a word!
And to think this is Day One!
