Maine Media College graduate and MMW Young Artists film instructor, Travis Trudell, has built a steady filmmaking career for himself in Boston.
Since graduating in 2001, he has consistently gained industry experience on the East Coast, working as rigging grip and rigging electrician on films like 21, The Women 27 Dresses, and more recent projects like Edge of Darkness and Martin Scorsese's Shutter Island.
Several films he's worked on will be released later this year, including Grown Ups with Adam Sandler, Salma Hayek, and Chris Rock, and Ben Affleck's The Town.
Travis leads his two-week MMW Young Filmmakers workshop for high school students June 27 - July 10 and returns to Rockport August 8 - 21 to teach Advanced Young Filmmakers.
