INSPIRED Director Charlie Gage began his career at a young age as a founding partner of a multimedia event services company before joining Mayan Pictures, where he wrote, directed and produced the short suspense/horror film Pandora’s Other Box. Charlie’s extensive experience behind the camera is the result of years of working with on music videos, feature films and national commercials, as well as a team member at Capitol Records. On the print side, Charlie worked for two years as editor of Joey Magazine, where he helped to catapult the gay youth publication into the national spotlight.
In early 2002, Charlie teamed up with longtime friend J.T. Tepnapa to create the film Masturbation: Putting the Fun into Self-Loving. Masturbation went on to become a smash hit, screening in countless film festivals in six countries, receiving numerous awards, international distribution, and has even been featured in sex-education classrooms and documentaries.
A few years later he joined Telekinetic Entertainment producing DVD bonus features for such films as Wedding Date, American Pie Presents: Band Camp, and The Roger Corman Collection.
Telekinetic next ventured into documentary filmmaking with Charlie as the associate producer on We're All Angels. This award-winning film premiered as a Showtime Exclusive for a year and a half years, and it can now be seen on the Logo.
In 2008, after being swept up in the wave of protests and rallies following the passage of California's Proposition 8, Charlie joined long time friend Ian McIntosh to produce and direct his first full length feature documentary INSPIRED: The Voices Against Prop 8 under the banner of Purple Ray Pictures. Charlie is very proud of their work on INSPIRED, and hopeful this film can truly help inspire a new generation of activism and equality.
Congratulations on reaching your goal! I know the finished product will be teriffic. Can't wait to get my copy.
reminds me of a riotous New Year's Eve celebration in SF. I saw two cops on top of a kid on the ground who had just knocked over a trash can. I ran over to protest, and a 3rd cop pulled out a gun and aimed at me. My boyfriend literally grabbed me by the colllar and pulled me away. Crazy times!
Congrats, thus far! It's a worthy cause and it's going to be a great doc!
