Tucker Johnston creative director / designer
Tucker Johnston graduated from the University of Kansas with a BFA in Design and attended film school at the University of Southern California, where he studied film production under famed Warner Bros. film director, Andre de Toth (HOUSE OF WAX).
Johnston started out as an art department intern at The Wolfe Co. in Hollywood, co-designing music videos for Blue Oyster Cult and The Stray Cats. Working his way up through the ranks, he soon became an art director and property master working on feature film and television productions for companies including Walt Disney Pictures, PBS, Tri-Star Pictures and Playboy, working with such film & television personalities as Robert Mitchum, Lily Tomlin, Jerry Stiller, Rhonda Fleming and Virginia Madsen.
Johnston was the property master on the critically-acclaimed Emmy Award-winning PBS movie, SWEET 15 starring Tony Plana, Jenny Gago and Jerry Stiller.
During this time, Johnston teamed-up with Production Designer Robert Sissman and started TWO DUDES FROM WYOMING, an L.A.-based art direction company. The pair designed and art directed numerous feature film and television productions, including two Disney Channel Mickey Mouse Club series, SECRET BODYGUARD and MY LIFE AS A BABYSITTER. They designed commercials and industrials for clients including Apple, Hyundai, Honda and The Sharper Image, as well as MTV music videos for groups including R.E.O. Speedwagon, Eric Burden and The Manhattan Transfer.
After gaining experience on other filmmaker's productions, Johnston wrote and directed the off-beat horror thriller, BLOOD SALVAGE, starring Ray Walston (Fast Times At Ridgepoint High), John Saxon (Enter The Dragon) and Heavyweight Champion Evander Holyfield, who was also one of the Executive Producers (and investors). The film was nominated for Drive-In Movie Critic Joe Bob Briggs's Golden Hubcap Award for "Best Movie Bad Guy" and has since developed a cult-following among horror fans, thanks in part to online fan forums and social media groups like

In 1995, with major technological advances in graphic design and digital imaging software, Johnston turned his creative energies from film production to launching a cutting-edge graphic design studio in Kansas City. The decision proved to be a sound one. Twenty-five years later, Tucker Johnston Design is still creating memorable advertising and marketing designs for small businesses and entrepreneurs and around the country.
