Josh Jones(IX)
- Producer
- Director
- Actor
Born Joshua Jones on August 6, 1997, Josh took an early approach to the
industry. Landing several commercials and prints over a few years, Josh
landed a bigger role as a main character on the tv show, A Haunting.
After which, the acting jobs available in Maryland became few to none.
Near quitting the acting industry, Josh landed a role he thought would
change his life - a character in the horror movie, Lovely Molly. While
the role did not make him famous, he did take a different approach to
the industry after words. He became fascinated with directing. The
concept of making your own movie amazed him. He began writing silly
films for him to make with his friends. However, upon turning 14, he
became much more serious about the film industry. He created his first
short film on a no budget. While unreleased, it provided a solid
learning experience for him and his crew. A year passed and his church
introduced him to a competition called Teen Talent. Josh originally
wanted nothing to do with it, until he realized the publicity he may
get upon winning. With one week left until the competition, he decided
to write, cast, direct, and edit an entire film on a $500 budget. Not
sleeping for over 72 hours, he pulled it off. Through the obstacles
that stood in his way, Josh won first place for his short film, One
Night in Christ. This winning also paved the way for him to go to
college. Josh is currently studying to get into college whilst planning
his next film.
