Composite Effects (CFX), a Baton Rouge company that specializes in silicone masks, special effects and props, has landed a licensing deal with HBO to mass-produce products for the popular show Game of Thrones. Their “White Walker” costume masks, based on mythological characters from the show, are set for a spring 2014 release.
The deal is the latest bit of good news for the burgeoning company, which has also been tapped to help Skybound’s production of The Walking Dead: Escape, a zombie-themed obstacle course coming to the River Center April 24.
CFX sculptor and media relations director Diana Branton says work on the White Walker silicone mask and costume pieces began during season three of the HBO series.
