Director Biography – Joshua M Thomas

Joshua Thomas is a father of 4 and an organic farmer by day…and yet he seems to always find a way to follow his passion for film and screenwriting. In the midst of family and farm life, Josh returned to school in 2017, receiving his Master of Fine Arts from San Francisco State University in 2020. Out of necessity, his four kids were cast members of his thesis film—The Maroon Bomber was made during the first months of the COVID-19 pandemic, while our county had a shelter-in-place order. Josh scrapped his original film plans and came up with this short documentary film idea that could be shot entirely on the family farm. The Maroon Bomber has been selected and screened at 36 film festivals across the USA and abroad in Australia, Ireland, Spain, Sweden, & Canada…earning several awards.

Josh is co-founder and creative engine of Thomas Farm Films, Inc., which is a film production company that he and his wife launched in 2019, that focuses on teaching children the craft of filmmaking. Filmmaking summer camps are held on the Thomas Farm in Aptos, CA. Josh has extensive experience in documentary, but his passion is narrative filmmaking. His work has screened at numerous film festivals across North America, Europe and Asia. He is also a prolific screenwriter that has completed a vast amount of scripts, both short and feature length.
