In his films, NYC-based filmmaker Colin Read uses skateboarding to playfully reflect on themes such as life, death, and nature. His 90s-style fisheye Sony VX1000 evokes nostalgia for the heyday of skateboarding, but his visual language expands and challenges the format, both in its content and form. The success of Read’s skate films gave him the opportunity to create music videos for Radiohead, Glass Animals and Weezer, as well as commercials for Converse, Lexus and Burberry. While skateboarding features in some of his commercials, the visual language and technical skill he built through skate videography creep into all of his work.
