Early life

Born in Syracuse, New York to a single mother, Strobeck grew up with his grandmother, mother, and other family members.[7] His mother was diagnosed with schizophrenia when Bill was growing up which resulted in her not being around for a period.[7] Strobeck moved around living with different family members until his mother found proper treatment.[7] After receiving treatment and reentering his life, Strobeck's mother encouraged his creativity and freedom.[7] Strobeck describes the void left by his mother's partial absence in his childhood as having a strong influence on his creativity.[8]

Filmmaking

As a young teenager in the 1990s, Strobeck first started filming his friends outside the Everson Museum of Art in the center of Syracuse.[9] At the time, the museum considered skating an art form and allowed the skaters to skate the plaza in front of it.[9]

In 1996, Strobeck moved to Philadelphia at the age of 17.[10] Strobeck filmed skateboarding during the Love Park skate scene from ~ 1997 until 2003. As the popularity of the Philadelphia skateboard scene grew, Alien Workshop offered Strobeck a daily retainer to be a skate videographer for the company.[8] By 1998, Strobeck had quit community college and doing deliveries to work on the Alien Workshop video Photosynthesis full time.[8] In 2004, Strobeck self funded a day in the life film starring Mark Gonzales and Jason Dill, titled DIZZY.[11]

Also in 2012, Strobeck began filming his first feature length video for Supreme called Cherry. cherry was released in 2014, featuring a large variety of skaters in a series of montages accompanied by a two parts, one by Paulo Diaz and one shared part by Dylan Rieder and Alex Olson.[15] Cherry, Supreme's first skate video in almost 20 years, received positive reviews from fans and critics.[16]
