Charlie Gillette is an award-winning filmmaker based in New York City. With a BA in Film Studies from Barnard College of Columbia University and an MA in Acting from the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, she brings a sharp cinematic eye and a deep understanding of performance to her work. Her music videos, short films, and commercials have been featured in The Hollywood Reporter, Teen Vogue, Elle, and Bustle, and have screened at the Museum of the Moving Image, the Museum of Modern Art in New York City, and film festivals around the world.

Shaped by her Chilean and German heritage and a nomadic upbringing as an army brat, Charlie is drawn to stories of displacement and belonging—exploring the complexities of feeling like an outsider within our families and the world. Committed to amplifying underrepresented voices, especially those of women, she uses her work to challenge perspectives and push boundaries.
