More About Me
Dear World,
​
My name is Charlie Pane and I’d love to collaborate with you! I’d like to take a moment to introduce myself.
I’ve written a brief bio for myself below, followed by a more in-depth profile if you’d like to learn more about me and what I can do for you. ​
 Trying to succinctly summarize myself often fails to capture who I am and what I can do. To say the least I am a creative problem solver, holistic creator, and media maker.
I manage creative projects, network and innovate, design and create, and love to bake.
I have a B.A. from a prestigious liberal arts institution and a terminal degree in Game Design from George Brown College. I’ve worked in arts administration, non-profits, education, event planning, new media, and film and theatre production. I love collaborating and working with people from varied backgrounds on innovative projects. I have a considerable skill set and a unique multidisciplinary perspective that can be a great asset to any endeavor. The combination of those attributes lets me contribute my creative flare and wide body of knowledge, while also using principles and practices from other fields.
​​
I’d love to hear from you!
-Charlie Pane​

More about me:
My background has a wide breadth and plenty of depth as well. I have a B.A. from Vassar College (a top-tier, rigorous liberal arts institution, part of the Seven Sisters schools) in Film, Cognitive Science, and Media Studies. Additionally, I have a terminal degree in Game Design and Production from George Brown College. I’ve been a fine artist throughout my life.
​​
I have many years experience working in Film and Theatre production in a community setting. My passion in that realm is Costume Design; however, I enjoy all aspects of performance and design. I am also a trained Voice-Over actor.
It seems that just as long as I have been working in performing arts, I have also been working with arts administration, non-profit work, and event planning.
​​
Having worked in performing arts and attended a liberal arts institution, I am a very capable facilitator and creative project manager. Another aspect to this part of my background is that I’m a master of multi- and inter-disciplinary projects.
​​
I’ve taught and worked with classes from primary school to post-secondary and continuing education settings, and I am devoted to achieving a higher level of education in innovative ways.​
​​
My personal and professional interests include religion, human cognition, culture & media. Basically, I’m intrigued by how we experience the world around us and how we mediate our mental states to others. I am devoted to creating Positive Media throughout my career, and I also want to work with kids in children’s Media.
​​
Having a liberal arts education from such a prestigious and rigorous institution means I am capable of quickly mastering new things and rapidly adapting to demanding situations. Additionally, I am well-trained in researching in a multitude of disciplines.​
​​
Job functions that I’ve filled before include: consulting, graphic design, program management, think-tanking, writing, critical analysis, facilitation, administration support, hospitality, design management and support.
​​
I am dedicated to performing above and beyond expectations with enthusiasm and presence. I am an extremely capable person that has a clear understanding of how the ‘real-world’ works. While my soft skills dwarf those in similar career phases, I can deliver on hard skill tasks just as deftly.
