FAD/Will Hyde: Best Cigarette

Will Hyde of FAD did a fantastic job contributing to Sundance Channel’s charming series of shorts set to poetry from former poet laureate, Billy Collins. Will’s piece, “Best Cigarette,” won a well-deserved Silver Lion at Cannes this year in the film category.

people seem to want to knock gnarls. i think gnarls had great motion, seamlessness, concept. i like how fad uses the sand blowing away look on their work, and this was no doubt cool, but i felt the gnarls gave me more of a … “damn!” feeling.

All of those Billy Collins pieces are amazing. Thanks for highlighting the people who made them…
