Hello, my name is Reid Collins.
I have always loved to watch movies. I have been making movies with friends since I was in middle school. As of today I have several lenses that include the Canon 24-70mm 2.8L II, Canon 70-200mm 2.8L, and Canon 24mm 1.4L. I own a Jacobson sound blimp to silence the shutter for on set photography. My favorite directors are Paul Thomas Anderson and The Coen Brothers. My favorite cinematographers are Robert Elswit, Roger Deakins, and Bruno Delbonnel.
