Tasha Tacosa started her professional career quite swiftly under the age of ten, the youngest member ever cast, in Equity theater company "The Virginia Shakespeare Festival Guild." With her background in classical/modern/experimental theater she has been in over 80 stage plays / musicals including Felicity: An American Girl (the main stage launch of American Girl's toy line). Growing up she split her time between sports (competitive gymnast, swimmer and soccer) and a series regular role of PJ on PBS' Minds on Science produced by Don Jeffries (Sesame Street). This great sitcom educated and entertained kids with science experiments. This lead to a platform of award winning public speaking engagements on "Positive Living." Her belief she shared with others is "You have a chance if you are willing to try." All of this under her belt still as a minor. Dyslexia did not hold her back from writing / producing two TV series on Showtime or winning LA Comedy Fest's Best Webseries for TRENT AND TILLY. The first film Tasha ever wrote and starred in was hand picked by Elevate Films to be produced and screened at their festival. Her comedic background was cultivated from the likes of Second City Improv along with booking the female lead in Latin Sketch Comedy pilot with the Latin Kings of Comedy where she wrote and created ten characters each with separate accents. Her noteworthy commercial campaigns include Cleo nominated Boys Town USA, Coca Cola, Honda, Starbucks, Vita Water & Subway. Now that she is all grown up, aside from being a favorite on the independent horror scene she hosts "The Indie Hour," a radio show that focuses on indie film making and supernatural horror based scripts. Buffalo Scream Festival awarded her BEST ACTRESS for her work in indie RAT SCRATCH FEVER. From stage to your living room, in your ears and on screen, she will appear to the rest of the world given the chance.

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on Motif; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Motif score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their Motif titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
