TG Geeks Webcast Episode 262
About Pia Thrasher
Pia Thrasher is an actor, filmmaker and visual artist originally from Germany, where she studied the arts at the E.T.A. Hoffman Gymnasium. She majored in English and graduated from the Euro Sprachschule Bamberg as a Foreign Language Correspondent. Pia’s acting experience started around 5th grade in school theatre and several small stage productions in her hometown in Germany. Soon after immigrating to the U.S. she tasted ‘movie blood’ while working on several film sets as an extra, including James Cameron’s ‘Titanic’. Wanting to learn more about the craft, she began training in earnest and enrolled in acting classes and showcases. Once she started auditioning, student films offered her opportunities to play speaking parts, adding experience and confidence to win her supporting and leading roles in shorts and independent films. Pia eventually branched out and also worked on numerous film sets behind the scenes, gaining more knowledge and skills as a filmmaker. The dark comedy short ‘The Appointment’ was Pia’s directorial debut in 2015. Look out for her next short film, the horror comedy ‘Things We Dig’ she wrote, directed and stars in, coming to film festivals in 2020!
“Things We Dig” is about four female vampires that want to expand their business. So, they have a plan, but will it work? Let’s find out, shall we? 😉

As you know we are huge supporters of Independent Creators and not just in film. TG Geeks supports any kind of creative outlet that’s independent in nature. We know we’re always pushing something, but we’re passionate about supporting indie artists. We ask that you to take a look at the independent creators we talk about and any others you may discover on your own and give a helping hand. It doesn’t have to be much, but every little bit helps in the scheme of things.
