about
A young filmmaker & businessman, Joshua Sikora has produced, written, & directed a number of award-winning independent films. Committed to high-quality, low-budget filmmaking, Sikora has a passion for the freedom and creativity that independent cinema offers.

In 2005, he founded the Sikora Media Group and New Renaissance Pictures, which are breaking new ground in the creation and delivery of the next generation of multimedia. Sikora's latest endeavor is WebSerials.com—an exciting new network for serialized media, which is host to several Sikora productions, including Project X and Cataclysmo. The serials, downloaded more than two million times in the last year, were dubbed by YouTube "some of the best dramas the web has to offer."

Sikora also occasionally teaches film for the Torrey Honors Institute at Biola University. He lives in La Habra, CA with his wife Alisa.
