Todd A. Dos Reis, ASC is a third generation Cape Verdean-American who grew up in a housing project of New Bedford, Massachusetts. Raised by a single mother, he loved going to the local theater. From Disney films to Bruce Lee films to the Blaxploitation Genre of the 70's, Todd escaped to the cinema to fill his imagination.When not at the movies, Todd could be found at the basketball courts around the city, where he honed his skills to become one of the city's top point guards. When he got to high school, he split his time between the gym and his love of photography and film production where he took every photography class and ran the high school TV studio. When it was time for college, he chose to study cinematography at the University of Southern California.After graduating with a degree in Cinema-TV Production from USC, an internship at a production company led to a PA job, leading to working as a camera loader and eventually to a 2nd AC position on a feature film. While climbing the camera department and union ladders, Todd was constantly shooting music videos, spec commercials, documentaries and short films.Working as a Camera Operator, Todd landed his first big break on the pilot ENTOURAGE for HBO. He handheld the 35mm film camera until they moved him up to become their full-time Director of Photography.Todd has shot critically acclaimed shows like the Peabody Award Winner DAVID MAKES MAN. "Tarrell Alvin McCraney's visually stunning coming-of age drama contemplates identity as fluid, plural, restrictive, and powerful, immersing viewers in the heart- wrenching world of a gifted 14-year-old African American boy growing up in the Miami projects". Other notable series he has shot include COUNCIL OF DADS, LONGMIRE and CRAZY EX-GIRLFRIEND. Show less «
