Early Work
Luckey learned the craft of animation in his family's studio in San Francisco under his father, animator Bud Luckey. That studio produced numerous animated and combined live-animated television commercials and short films for The Children's Television Workshop's (now known as Sesame Workshop) series Sesame Street.
Following high school, Luckey briefly worked as a Visual Effects Designer for the Mill Valley, California based studio Audio Vision Projects. His most notable work there was co-designing, with famed Cinematographer Katsuya Ushino, the visual effects for the MTV music video of "Turn of the Century" featuring the Warner Bros. Records progressive British rock group Yes and vocalist Jon Anderson. The video was the directorial debut of Brian G. Smith who later came to fame as a director of fantasy sci-fi films.

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or work:
“Pray be always in motion. Early in the morning go and see things; and the rest of the day go and see people. If you stay but a week at a place, and that an insignificant one, see, however, all that is to be seen there; know as many people, and get into as many houses as ever you can.”
—Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)
“And work was little in the house,
She was free,”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
