BIOGRAPHY

 

Vange Tapia is a multilingual Actress, VO talent, TV Host and Producer from Mexico City. She’s fluent in English, Spanish & French, plus speaks conversational Italian.

She began her career as a teenager and gained credibility with a series of award winning TV commercials where she worked with Director Francisco Murguía and delivered a series of 30 second monologues by Cineconcepto (Cinematronics).

Those commercials coined Vange’s famous phrase “No Inventes” and characterized her as the classic Preppy/Valley Girl (“Fresa”), which gave her critical acclaim and introduced her to the Film, Television and Voice Over industry.

She went on to book a lead role in the TV series “Hora Marcada” – Episode: “No Retornable” with both Academy Award winners Director Alfonso Cuarón and Cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki.

Her love of people and travel took her into *customer service and tourism” where she gained experience as a G.O. (Gentile Organizer), Master of Ceremony, and Concierge. She was instrumental in founding the Mexican chapter of  “Les Clefs D’Or” (Golden crossed keys for hotel Concierges) with the guidance of Marjorie Silverman as Godmother (USA Concierge Guild President at the time – RIP) and later became president for the Baja California region. She also was part of launching an important black credit card for a well known international bank in the Concierge department and supporting New Products Development where she also voiced the IVR prompters.

Achieving clarity of her two passions – travel and performing – Vange found a great opportunity to combine both professions. She was invited as on-camera host and writer in Spanish and English for the  Travel Channel Online for Brand USA/Discover America (Now “Visit the USA”), as well as for Rolling Tworistas, that she shares with her husband. She was written and hosted 60+ travel videos and articles. Where Vange came up with the idea of creating a collective organization where actors also write / direct and or produce.

Continuing her passion for creating and connecting people, Vange served as one of the board of directors for the philanthropic organization Frijolywood until its last event.

Inspired by her travel hosting experience and the work she created in Frijolywood, Vange landed the collective “Actors Slash” / Connecting Slashers, a community of international and local talent in Hollywood where artists can perform, produce, direct, and write their own content in collaboration with other fellow creative minds in the entertainment Industry.

Actors Slash has since blossomed; hosting mixers, summits, and putting film makers in touch with major studios. Vange has host screenings and panels at cultural venues such as the CCCM (Cultural Center of Cinematic Arts) located at the Mexican Consulate in Los Angeles, and at International Film and Theater festivals where she has been invited as a Jury, Community Outreach, Supporting Organization & Co-producer.

She has also produced short films and short plays (some of then written, directed and performed by her) in addition with monthly online or in-person events with international guests.

Vange has performed in several TV  and radio spots, TV series, films and plays as well as she has dubbed films and television for both Mexico and the US.

Currently, she is happily married and lives in Los Angeles, CA working back and forth, doing what she likes the most.
