Logan Leistikow (born February 25, 1984, in Nacogdoches, Texas) is an American filmmaker known for his documentary, The Comedy Garage. Leistikow also produced and directed Tom Green Live and several behind-the-scenes videos and promos for NBC.
Leistikow has composed music for many of his own films, as well as other films and even video games. His now defunct "Public Music Project" had become a valuable resource for artists looking for quality royalty-free music.
In the autumn of 2006, Reader's Digest and The Little River Zoo commissioned Leistikow to film the world's only painting capuchin monkey, Bailey. The resulting video was featured on their website and was linked to from the November 2006 print issue of Reader's Digest.
On the July 26, 2007, episode LA Ink's Kat Von D suggested that Tom give her a tattoo live on air. She'd brought her own equipment for the process and after deliberating for several minutes, Tom agreed to tattoo "Logan" on her arm. This was Logan's last week working at the show.
A notable episode of The Yellow Mic is "WGA Strike 2007" wherein Leistikow and Feigh interview WGA writers such as Chuck Lorre ( Dharma & Greg, Two and a Half Men), and Joe Medieros ( The Tonight Show with Jay Leno) picketing outside of NBC Studios in Burbank, California. Actors Jon Cryer ( Two and a Half Men) and Erin Tietsort ( Sunset Tan) have also made guest appearances on The Yellow Mic.
The show highlights awkward silences and pregnant pauses. A red carpet episode entitled "Streamy Awards 2009" opened with an awkward exchange involving Lisa Kudro and Yellow Mic correspondent Corbin Ross. The 'pilot' episode was in fact a video of Leistikow attempting to flirt with reality TV star Erin Tietsort and ending up interviewing a local homeless woman.
