This is Mr. Travon Story. It's about how he developed an interest in Media & Entertainment. During Mr. Travon's middle school years from September 2014 to June 2017, he began showing an interest in video and film. This interest was sparked during his Wednesday Talent Class in the year 2016 when he was in 7th grade. Inspired by "Mr. UWS Young Producers," Mr. Travon created his own small video and film program called "Mr. T Youngwriters." He started making short films with kids in his community. This continued in 2017, as Mr. Travon continued to make short films with kids in his community. In June 2017, Mr. Travon graduated from middle school. 

​

During Mr. Travon's high school years, from September 2017 to June 2021, he focused on his first year of high school. He also had an internship with Mr. Christian, the founder of UWS Young Producers, where he worked with 8th graders at a middle school in Canarsie, Brooklyn, New York. Mr. Travon completed his internship in just two months. In November 2018, Mr. Travon and Ms. Heidi started a fundraiser so that he could buy a camera. Unfortunately, only a few people helped with his fundraiser. While waiting for more donations, Mr. Travon borrowed his school's camera from December 2018 to June 2021 to continue practicing his photography skills. He was offered the opportunity to attend events and do photography as part of an internship, for which he got paid. After returning the school camera, Ms. Heidi gave Mr. Travon the money from his fundraiser, allowing him to finally purchase his own camera. Mr. Travon consistently maintains connections with older individuals in his profession, including Mr. Luke B, Mr. Earl C, Mr. Mustard I, as well as other African American filmmakers and photographers. Ms. Sophia has generously offered assistance to Mr. Travon in monetizing his client base. Presently, Mr. Travon is a teenage entrepreneur specializing in photography and filmmaking within his community, with the aim of enhancing his media expertise.
