Shadowfax is probably most recognized by convention attendees for his famous Saturday night BLACKOUT: Rave parties but he and his crew of Tech Ninjas are also responsible for bringing the stage, sound and lighting to life at many conventions across the state.

His background includes over twenty five years in the entertainment industry in a career that encompasses many roles from technical writer to fire-breather. In 2004 he introduced technical theater staging to the fan-based convention scene and has been raising the bar higher every year. His company has since helped nearly a dozen fan-based conventions to get their start and continues to provide technical services for many of them, including several of the largest in the state. When not working the convention scene, Shadowfax is a professional event DJ and also the owner and lead graphic artist for Outlaw Custom Designs where he can typically be found creating decals and T-shirts for clients around the world.

Shadowfax is best known for his massive room-filling Raves. More than a dance, they are a sensory experience where he blends Vocal, Anthem and Uplifting Trance with lights, video and glowsticks to create his own flavor of sensory-overloading EDM euphoria.

DJ Wildfire started his DJ career in 2005 and was the resident DJ for MechaCon from 2005 through 2015. While, living in Orlando Florida in 2011, he attended Full Sail and started working with Ignition/EDM and played at several of their events. Alter returning to New Orleans in 2011, he worked with groups like Flyy-By-Night and Dohm Collective. After taking time off in 2015 to take care of his children, he has returned to the scene to get back into the groove!
