Creator of E̶L̶I̶T̶I̶S̶T̶ and designer Charlie Hulse is an entertainment professional located in Ventura County, California within the Greater Los Angeles Area.
Charlie discovered the thrill of filmmaking from using his first camera in elementary school. As a kid, Charlie utilized the magic of desktop screen recording and editing softwares like Sony Vegas and Final Cut to create Club Penguin music videos.
At the age of 13, Charlie Hulse decided to enter the film and television industry as an actor after being inspired by a scene from Nickelodeon's Drake and Josh. Charlie's journey in the industry led him through various internships, honing his skills in development, production, and talent management. Mentored by working professionals, Charlie attained knowledge of several positions in entertainment. Whether it's script supervising with Peter Skarratt software, breaking down a schedule with MovieMagic Scheduling, or sound editing in Pro Tools - Charlie can get the production done. Now, he channels his expertise as a Co-Executive Producer on the upcoming rom-com series THE SINGLE(S), and as a writer-producer on passion projects, with aspirations of leading impactful stories through his productions.
At age 15, Charlie Hulse created the name for his clothing brand as ELITIST. In 2013, Charlie designed his first product with an initial logo imprinted onto a baseball tee shirt for sale using a Big Cartel website. Charlie later matured along with his evolving brand when realizing an elitist does not have to abide by the negative connotations, thus the current strikethrough line in the logo.
A positive redefinition, an ELITIST is a leader who strives to self-actualize and exceed their potential. Charlie pursued his interest in fashion further by working with mentors in screen printing workshops. Charlie also has goals of making cut & sew garments and designing a shoe patent. Charlie's vision is to create comfortable clothing that nobody has ever seen before.

CHAR is independent with his own ASCAP registered publishing label E̶L̶I̶T̶I̶S̶T̶ STUDIOS. CHAR's goals in music industry administration include licensing sync placements of artists' songs into video games, commercials, television shows, and movies.
