THURSDAY THROWBACK 16 (SITUATIONS AT HAND)

Posted by davidread on Thursday, August 26th, 2010

Sorry for the absence, busy times. Yes, there’s a new mag in the works (out Sept 6th). This week we throwback a little outside Manual to the world (and videos) of Bill Bycroft. Please take the time to peruse his recently updated video library on YouTube. Bill’s moniker Situations at Hand was responsible for the recent, straight to the internet, flick Gold Watch (with 09 Video Factory), but what we are talking about today is the selected parts from the legendary, and until now only released on VHS, Icons of Elegance. This features Rodrigo Herring’s (pictured above) epic part from Icons. Bill’s brother Craig’s part, Nick Lister’s, and Gareth and Bryce Mills’ shared part. There’s also some sections from Index videos here and here, and finally the S.A.H. section from the 2006 Manual/Red Bull collaboration Layout. Enjoy.
