Tucker's experience producing music videos of her own brought her to fashion and film, producing projects for Remedial Media, Conde Nast, Moving Studio, Nicole Kidman and Karen Elson. Tucker is currently directing the feature-length documentary Comeback Evolution about the life and work of Walter Delbridge, a 72 year-old poet and artist living with schizophrenia.
