Neal Fredericks
Neal L. Fredericks (July 24, 1969 in Newport Beach, California - August 14, 2004 in the Florida Keys) was a motion picture cinematographer, most famous for The Blair Witch Project. His other credits include Dreamers, Killer Me, and The Stonecutter. During his life, Fredericks lived in California, Guam, Spain, Florida, and Maryland. He was a graduate of Montgomery College and Towson University. Most of those involved with The Blair Witch Project were alumni of one or the other of these schools. Fredericks died while filming scenes for the upcoming film Cross Bones. The private aircraft he and the film's writer/director Daniel Zirilli were using to obtain aerial footage near the Dry Tortugas landed in the sea when its engine failed. Though Zirilli, the pilot, and two other crew members were able to escape, Fredericks was trapped beneath his equipment, and was unable to free himself before it submerged.
