Tyler Ford is a creative director, image-maker, and director working at the intersection of story and culture. His work spans film, photography, branded content, experiential campaigns, written narratives, and immersive worlds - all anchored by a passion for shaping ideas that not only look striking but feel meaningful.
He began his career under the mentorship of two industry icons, Frank Budgen and Mark Romanek. As a Director’s Assistant, he absorbed the craft of filmmaking from the inside out, learning to lead with intention, intelligence, and humanity. That foundation continues to guide his approach - whether directing on set, capturing emotion through a lens, crafting a brand’s voice, or building stories across platforms.
Tyler’s evolution as a creative director accelerated at Visionaire, where he oversaw film and collaborated on multidisciplinary storytelling initiatives, including a pioneering VR project with KAWS. From there, he moved into independent work with leading global brands before becoming Executive Creative Director at Subnation Media. There, he led a large team across content, experiential, and IP development - delivering culture-forward campaigns and experiences for clients like NASCAR, Amazon, T-Mobile, and Mythical Games.
Today, Tyler leads creative across select projects and clients, drawing on a deep well of experience in direction, storytelling, and visual culture. Collaboration is central to his process. He works with a trusted collective of creative partners to bring ideas to life - grounded in emotional depth, cultural relevance, and a strong point of view.
