Joseph Holmes

The son of two ordained ministers who constantly talked movies around the dinner table, Joseph early on developed a passion for entertaining movies and big ideas. Joseph began making his own films as a teenager and wrote, filmed, and co-hosted a web show, "Normal Guy vs The World". He began pursuing filmmaking in earnest once in college where he founded the filmmaking club, King's Image Films, and wrote, directed and produced three of his own short student films, including "Kelly vs The Philosophers" and "Happy Never After". After college he wrote and directed his first two non-student films, "All God's Children" and "My Existential Crisis", which garnered him his first short film nominations ("All God's Children": Best Actor in a Short Film, Best Comedic Performance in a Short Film; "My Existential Crisis": Best Actress in a Short Film).
