MastersFX was founded in 1987 by three-time Emmy Award winner Todd Masters, with offices located in Burnaby and Toronto.

The studio’s resume reads like a who’s who of the supernatural and sci-fi. MastersFX created Chucky from Child’s Play, the Predator from the film series of the same name, The Borg from Star Trek, and even Jack from the Jack in the Box commercials.
