Biography

Haycock's early interest in filmmaking was sparked by a gift from his mother, a VHS camcorder, which he used to make surf and skateboard videos as a teenager.[10] This early interest led him to work in graphic design at Thrasher Magazine while he developed his skills in visual effects and editing.[11] Haycock's early work in graphic design and visual effects included creating title sequences for notable productions such as "Fight Club"[12] and "Nip/Tuck."[13] For the latter, he received an Emmy Nomination in 2004.[14]
