Vjestica still has high admiration for actors and the art as a whole, and has sometimes gone to step in as an actor in his own productions in recent history. In 2021 Charlie as well as his two close friends Beach Darnley and Will Grant decided to begin setting up a small production company titled 'Legacy Cinema', which has gone on to he recognised for awards such as the 2022 Aldridge Film Festival, where their debut film 'Black Note' was nominated for the best documentary category, Vjestica was also selected to host the awards ceremony for its many prestigious guests.
