Trevor Wall - Month Mentorship

Trevor Wall began his entertainment career as an awkwardly shy Squanto in a very problematic kindergarten Thanksgiving play. As an only child raised by a cinephile single mom in Southern California, he watched hundreds of hours of classic cinema that taught him everything he knows about the human condition (for better and for worse). Trevor went on to study filmmaking in high school for free and at university for several thousands of dollars that he will likely never pay off.

After a year at Will Smith’s Overbrook Entertainment, Trevor started working at The Mission Entertainment (QUEEN & SLIM, BEING MARY TYLER MOORE) where he helped lay the foundation and infrastructure for the launch of Lena Waithe’s company Hillman Grad Productions (A THOUSAND AND ONE, THE CHI). Trevor continued to fail upward in his career by becoming the Director of Development/Producer at 30K FT, a former production company backed by Drake and Future the Prince. Recently, his first feature film as a producer premiered at the 2024 Sundance Film Festival — PONYBOI directed by Esteban Arango and starring River Gallo, Dylan O’Brien, Victoria Pedretti, Murray Bartlett, and Indya Moore. When Trevor’s not making his mom proud working in Hollywood, you can find him wandering a local art museum during the day and moonlighting as a masked vigilante at night.
