Bio

Hello! My name is Spencer Thorne, from Philadelphia, but studying at Ithaca College. As a junior majoring in Cinema/Photography with a minor in Entrepreneurial Innovation, I blend experimental creativity with business acumen to drive innovation. Currently, I am the media creator for a Wellness Clinic in Georgia, where I bring a fresh, avant-garde touch to their brand through cutting-edge videos and advertisements. Previously, I interned with the ARRE Foundation as their branding curator, and I've been a swim instructor for two teams in my hometown for the past five years.

I’m passionate about graphic design, video editing, and music production, fashion, and exhibitions. I also have a special knack for connecting with children and believe firmly in the fostering and preservation of creativity from an early age. In 2021, I trademarked my personal media brand, PIPLOE ENTERTAINMENT, where I share my short films and music; my latest short film has been accepted into two student festivals! I’m driven to elevate PIPLOE into a global platform for experimental and stylized art.

In my free time, you’ll find me crafting experimental beats, designing graphics, or delving into immersive worlds through film and music. Fun fact: I once created an experimental rap album from my dog's perspective and am also a newly practicing Wiccan.

In everything thing I do, I am unapologetically myself. From my clothing to my unique way of speaking, I am despise the notion of conforming to any "ideal" way of being. I believe that in order to make change, you have to be willing to stand out. Excited to connect and explore innovative ideas together!

Achievements

My latest short film as presented on PIPLOE was accepted into two student film festivals. In addition to my creative pursuits, I co-founded a sensory toys business, "MOON RABBIT," which recently earned us a $4,000 award for our pitch.
