Charles B. Unger

began at age 12, when he wrote a spec script for the TV Anime series,

Battle of the Planets. Six years later, by the time he graduated as a

Fine Art major from New York City's prestigious La Guardia High School

of Music and Art, Charlie had completed several stop-motion animation

films. Charlie graduated from USC's School of Cinema-Television in the

early nineties, and was accepted into the Motion Picture Editor's Guild

shortly afterwards. For the next few years, he worked on several union

features while writing screenplays. In the late nineties, Charlie wrote

and directed a low budget, 80-minute feature film, Mr. Lucke.

Charlie's first feature received incredible exposure due to the instant

celebrity of its female star, Jerri Manthey of Survivor 2 fame, who

also had posed for Playboy. Mr. Lucke was profiled on Entertainment

Tonight, and E! News Daily. Entertainment Weekly reviewed it and

praised the "slick" style of the film. Mr. Lucke screened at IFP's 2001

Feature Film Market in NYC and is currently available at Amazon.com,

for on-line distribution. Later that same year, Charlie moved to Texas

and taught film production and digital film editing at Southern

Methodist University, in Dallas. Rediscovering film and teaching

inspired Charlie to write a dramatic, comedy about college students for

his next project

Charlie's fifth screenplay; Come Together was selected as a FINALIST in the Latino Screenplay Competition.

While Charlie was finishing post-production on Come Together, he edited

Farrah's Story. The NBC TV documentary about Farrah Fawcett's fight

with cancer was the highest-rated prime-time documentary of 2009. In

November of 2009, Come Together was chosen as a PLATINUM REEL AWARD

WINNER at The Nevada Film Festival. In June of 2010, Come Together was chosen as a SILVER ACE AWARD WIINNER at the Las Vegas Film Festival.

On July 20th, of 2010, Indican Pictures will release Come Together on

DVD. Recently, Charlie has written two more screenplays and directed The

Punky Pets: International Icon, a short animation film that he and his

wife and producing partner Paula, are using to launch a TV series.
