“Cathy knows how to work with clients to make ideas come to life,” said Tom Waring, CEO of Trailblazer Studios, the parent company of Red Truck Films. “After nearly 13 years at McKinney, she’s seen it all in the advertising industry and continues to push the limits of new media and other emerging trends. Her creativity and vision will be of enormous value to our agency clients.”

Wilson’s body of work includes live action, documentary, testimonial, special effects, animation and interactive spots. She has helped clients of all sizes and budgets connect with and appeal to their audiences. Her experience includes campaigns for Polaris, Sony, Qwest, Audi, NASDAQ and Travelocity.

As Wilson takes on her new position at Red Truck, director Garye Costner, who has served as interim EP, will transition into a full-time role as director and DP.

“Garye really stepped up to fill the EP post over the past year,” said Waring. “Now with Cathy coming on board, he can focus on what he loves best – being on location and behind the camera. Garye is one of our most in-demand directors, and it’s thrilling to have him dedicated to directing full time again.”
