ABOUT TASH
Tash lives and works in Los Angeles, CA. She was born in northern Indiana and lived for 6 years in NYC before settling out west. She originally studied to be an actor then set her sites on directing.
She directed her first short. Bizaria in 2013. It aired at a Hollyshorts event at the TCL Chinese Theaters in Hollywood and was promptly licensed by ShortsTV, airing for 3 years on DirectTV. After Bizaria she directed 7 more shorts and created one web-series (which was also licensed by ShortsTV) before being hired at Icon Media at the end of 2020. She helped to write, produce and eventually direct positive impact content. Prior to their closing at the end of August 2022, Tash directed and produced about 45 pieces of content for Icon Media**
In 2021, she and her writing partner Ben Barker polished their script based on her long ago idea "The Untimely Death of Herbert Sullivan." The script has been accepted at 10 festivals around the world so far, including one Finalist win, two Semi-finalist wins, 2 honorable mentions and one Best Screenplay award. They are currently pitching this as both a feature and TV show.
She wrote, produced and directed a Thriller pilot pitch called Abstraction, which will begin submitting to festivals in Mid-January 2022 and has to date won 22 "Best Web Series/TV Pilot" awards along with 10 additional "Official Selections".
She is currently pitching a feature "Kindred" written by Ryan Seale to direct and developing an Untitled screenplay with emmy nominated writer Mellinda Hensley.
She recently taught a webinar and a 4 part class for Stage 32 on how to create award winning short content.
**Due to Icon's sudden closing in the summer of 2022, about 18 of these pieces remain unpublished.
