Hollywood Special Effect Makeup Artist; Dubbed the "Master of Illusion"

Born in Northern California, Todd Tucker is a special effects artist and actor who has appeared in and work on the special effects, aesthetic and prosthetic designs on several films, television series and commercials. He is also a producer.

Fascinated by the special effects of fantasy and horror films growing up, Todd moved to Los Angeles, California, and immediately began applying his knowledge as one of the key artists for special effects makeup studio, Cannom Creations.

His work on the film “Hook” assisted the crew in receiving their first nomination from the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences for Achievement in Makeup. In 1992, Todd and the crew from Cannom Creations won their first Academy Award for Achievement in Makeup for the film “Bram Stokers Dracula,” following it the next year with another win for their work on “Mrs. Doubtfire.” Todd’s work on feature films came to be recognized six more times by the Academy for his work in makeup effects.

In 1995 Todd joined the Screen Actors Guild and soon became respected as one of Hollywood’s top creature actors and puppeteers. In addition to acting in feature films such as “Kull The Conqueror”, “Big Bad Wolf” and “The Passion of The Christ”, he was a puppeteer on a variety of films including “Jingle All The Way,” “A Simple Wish,” “Idle Hands,” “License to Wed” and “Van Helsing.” Todd’s versatility allowed him to portray over a dozen characters for the hit Warner Bros. show “Charmed.” He has also performed on the Disney Channel shows, “That’s So Raven” and “The Suite Life of Zack and Cody.”
