Saqib Siddik

Thanks for stopping by. My name is Saqib Siddik, and I am a film director and photographer. Among other things, I produce commercials, industrials, and fundraising videos. I am also an Adjunct Instructor in Visual Communications at ITT Technical Institute in Louisville, KY. I fell in love with filmmaking while attaining my bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology at Rice University. The rush of making my first film and screening it in front of a packed house was not something I could ignore. That feeling took me from Houston all the way to California, where I spent three years earning my M.F.A. in Film Production at Chapman University. I also wrote, directed, and composed music for my thesis film, The Passing, which premiered at the Los Angeles International Children’s Film Festival and recently won 1st Place at the Seguin Film Arts Festival. Now I live with my wife in Louisville, Kentucky, where I run my own production company, The Siddik Company LLC, and its subsidiary, Section4 Photography.
