Very tricksy using the theme name of ORC for their celebration! This looks like it will be fun! Sean Astin, Billy Boyd, and Brad Durif will be there! I wish I lived near California because I would be sure to go. I hope those of you who aren't far can make it.

Jorn Benzon
Can be seen all through the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy - if you know where to look for him! Orcs, Elves, Mortals - you name it, he was it! Jorn's best-known character was Rúmil, the Lórien archer and brother of Haldir, who so impolitely directed his arrow at Gimli. Jorn will be on hand at the convention to speak on stage and meet fans. His autograph is available for a nominal fee.
Jarl Benzon
Involved with Lord of the Rings in January of 2000, working first as an extra (elf - all costumes), Orc, Rohan, Urak-hai, Army of the dead, wildman, Gondorian soldier, and then as "stand-in" and body double for Orlando Bloom (Legolas). His last day on set was 3 and a half years later. Jarl's has since appeared as Glorfindel on a Decipher card.
Sandro Kopp
In 2002 and 2003 Sandro worked on the Lord of the Rings films. His main role was as one of Elrond's elf-lords. Apart from days as an elf, however, he also spent 20 days in the role a Gondorian soldier, one as a Rohirrim rider, 15 in the Army of the Dead, 15 as an Orc, 3 as Haradrim, one as a Corsair, one as a Helms Deep Elf and one as an Uruk-Hai. Sandro is also a very talented artist. Sandro will be speaking at the convention, meeting fans, and signing autographs and doing photo ops for a nominal fee.
