Charlie Weil

Hello. My name is Charlie Weil. I consider myself to be a young, passionate and progressive filmmaker and screenwriter with a clear and precise vision. I have an evidently apparent strong work ethic, that is inherently represented throughout all of my work.

I consider myself to be a passionate, conscientious, scrupulously determined, assiduously diligent and self motivated hard worker with an optimistic outlook on life. I consider myself to be a free spirited, passionate, expeditious, dexterous, self- disciplined and creative individual that is open to telling rich and inventive stories that not only entertains audiences members, but hopefully educates and enlightens them in the process as well. Essentially, I tend to think outside of the box on many worldwide topical issues; which has only enhanced my artistic voice and made it that much more powerful.

I pride myself on having a spontaneous and progressive view of the world, and with my ideas. I believe this will ultimately benefit me when pursuing my goals because I believe the better you maintain an open mind, you will ultimately have a clearer understanding of what you want to accomplish and how you intend on doing that. I am also a strategic and ambitious individual who thrives in both collaborative and individualized workplace environments.

My vast array of experiences is indicative of my passionate drive for excellence because it is directly commensurate to the many assets I have as an artist and as a filmmaker.
