We had the good fortune of connecting with Trenton Brisco and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Trenton, why did you decide to pursue a creative path?
When you have a creative mindset and you’re not in a creative career it’s like you’re not yourself. You’re bottling up who you are. You must let you creativity flow or else you will die with in. Die from suppressing your creative powers

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
What sets me apart from others is my resilience and unwavering determination. I had quick success in Hollywood at 22, landing speaking roles on soaps and making valuable connections. My journey took me around the world as the number one Spider-Man character performer for Marvel Comics, and I worked at Universal Studios as Spider-Man and other characters. However, after injuring my back, everything changed.

Despite being on the brink of making it—whether by selling a screenplay or starring in a TV series or film—I faced numerous setbacks. It was frustrating, but having my daughter reignited my drive. I knew I had to follow my dreams, no matter how many times I failed. Each setback became a lesson, and I kept getting back on the horse, determined to succeed.

Eventually, my persistence paid off, and I started winning festivals. Now, I’m more confident than ever that great things are coming my way. What excites me most is producing and developing projects with a team—it’s truly my passion. My story is one of resilience, learning, and an unyielding commitment to following my dreams, no matter the obstacles.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
If my best friend were visiting, I’d want to show them an unforgettable time by exploring both the hidden gems and some classic spots. We’d start with a staycation at Lake Las Vegas, one of my favorite places to unwind and take in the beautiful surroundings. It’s the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure.

We’d definitely visit Monzu, an incredible Italian restaurant where the food never disappoints. For a good laugh, we’d hit up a comedy club—there’s nothing like ending the night with some great humor.

Since I love the outdoors, we’d spend some time hiking at Red Rock and maybe even take a trip to Arizona for more scenic hikes. The views are breathtaking, and it’s a great way to connect with nature.

To top it all off, we’d catch a sports game—there’s always something exciting about being in the energy of a live crowd. This week-long itinerary would be the perfect blend of relaxation, adventure, and entertainment.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
My shout out is hands down my high school acting teacher Mr Harrington also known as H. He believe in me. Pushed me. His support made me tell him he would make appearances in my films one day. Well when I finally was able to cast my own he passed away so now I’m every movie I have some sort of control in I require we place a letter H somewhere in a scene. This way I did in fact put H in my movies. RIP H
