UNIT9 has signed New York-based director Colin Read to its roster for worldwide representation.

Read cut his directorial chops in the skateboard filmmaking world, with a series of award-winning independent films. After his 2016 breakthrough film Spirit Quest, he branched out into the commercial and music video spaces, directing pieces for clients including Radiohead, Converse, and Viceland.

“I'm extremely proud to join UNIT9,” Read said, “In their work you can feel a human touch - even the most technologically-advanced projects still have a hand-crafted feel to them. But more than that, everyone involved with the company is gracious and welcoming; I look forward to working with all of them.”

“We love that Colin continues our spirit of in-camera magic, his mix of handmade and highly crafted cultural films really excite us here at UNIT9," added creative partner Michelle Craig.

Read's signing follows the launch of UNIT9's new venture with Los Angeles-based production and management company, Nowhere, in a partnership aimed to support new voices and expand their long-form offerings.
