On December 24th 2000, Midnight Madness cast member Kameron Flynn was killed in a tragic car accident in his hometown of Suffern, NY . Kameron joined our cast after attending our Halloween show in 1996 and played Brad the entire time he was with us, and although he only performed only occasionally with us in 2000 due to school and work obligations he was still an active member with our cast. He was also the cast photographer, and shot thousands of pictures of us over the years (many on this web site). His most recent shoot with us was in August of 2000 when he shot pictures of us for the Swimsuit Issue of Crazed Imaginations. Kameron was also responsible for our original cast web page, and some of the code he wrote still serves this web site to this day.
Kameron - Self Portraits
New - April 2001
When Kameron shot the cast portraits of us at the Evanston in late 1999, he put them on his web server for me to download. It turns out that these pics here were also in the directory he gave me. I downloaded them and never deleted them for whatever reason. I knew I had these somewhere when we found out about his accident and I desperately wanted to find these pictures when I first put up Kam's memorial page. But, as much as I tried I couldn't. Well I finally found them last weekend while reorganizing my hard drive. I think these self portraits Kam shot of himself tell you a lot about him.
As is usually the case for the man behind the camera, there are not always a lot of pictures of the guy who's usually taking them. Fortunately, our cast had another shutterbug in me and I was able to get the occasional picture of Kam through the years...

A rare pic. Since one of us was usually taking a picture of the other
performing, there are
almost no pictures with both of us in them.

Kameron approached me after our Halloween show in 1996 and told me “I wanna play Brad.” Having performed for months without a backup, I was overjoyed for the help. Having played Brad and being the other photography nut in the cast I felt a special bond with him and we worked together on performance and cast material through the years. Even before I was taking pictures of our cast on a regular basis he was there with his camera shooting away at our performances and I learned from him about photography lighting and technique. And he gave me the drive and inspiration to start this very web site when he and former cast member Becky laid down the initial groundwork code. He was a great performer and although we didn’t spend much time together outside of our show, I considered him my friend and will miss him. - jefF
