Nolan Smith

Nolan Smith is an independent film producer and aspiring screenwriter from Bel Air, Maryland, USA. Smith found his passion for filmmaking in the summer of 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic. He spent his time in quarantine watching numerous films across multiple genres, fostering a greater love for the medium as an art form. He credits La La Land (2016) as being the film that inspired him the most in the pursuit of his career. Having started his high school's film club and writing several short screenplays, he ultimately decided to attend York College of Pennsylvania as a Film and Media Arts major with a minor in Marketing. During his time at York College of Pennsylvania, he teamed up with a group of like-minded film students and produced Hurry Up & Wait (2023), serving as his first official project credit. He hopes to work on even more filmmaking projects in the future, particularly those in the horror genre with an expressionistic and hyper-realistic style.
