Ben Rock

Ben Rock is an American film and theatre director, based in Los Angeles. Rock's career was launched when he served as production designer on the independent sensation The Blair Witch Project made by fellow University of Central Florida graduates Daniel Myrick, Eduardo Sanchez, Greggory R. Hale, Robin Cowie and Michael Monello. Rock created the infamous "stick man" symbol that became synonymous with the hit film.

Following the success of Blair Witch, Rock wrote three and directed two television specials in the mocumentary format, Curse of the Blair Witch (which Rock served as writer), and The Burkittsville 7 and Shadow of the Blair Witch, which Rock wrote, produced, and directed promoting the release of the sequel, Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2 that many deemed better than the film itself. He frequently directs TV or viral internet projects that are considered "Branded Content" or are somehow a part of marketing, including The B.P.R.D. Declassified, a marketing project for the Hellboy movie that aired on FX Networks and a series of short action films for Audi's online campaign The Art of the Heist, a series of viral internet videos for "The 4400" and "True Blood".

Rock's first feature film as a director, Alien Raiders, was released by Warner Home Video and Raw Feed in February 2009. The film stars Carlos Bernard, Rockmond Dunbar, and Mathew St. Patrick and is produced by Daniel Myrick, John Shiban and Tony Krantz.
