Final video's (for museums)

The Zabludowicz collection  
I chose the Zabludowicz collection because of the collector himself as he can have the lifestyle he wants and how he wants to relate to the public.Also it has a very interesting background with the building's history and with the owners history with arms dealing and he is political where as he bought a religous building.

Chaim "Poju" Zabludowicz is a London-based billionaire who has generously funded the Conservative Party in the UK and the Conservative Friends of Israel (CFI).
To know more clip on the texts, this will send you to the website.
This is his gallery website, link is below:

  • This is the first video which has the hangover 2 sound track. This representing the history of the building and owner.
  • the sound show is taking a wishy washy meaning as the film is my that strongly related to the piece but still give the piece more meaning by showing it in a different way.
This is the positive video- video one out of three but cut down to two for my project
This shows his background of arms dealing and the history of the building being a chapel.  this is about where he got his money for to start this gallery from helping people kill too helping people learn more about art as well letting people and schools go in there for free and viewer these new artist.
Name of video two: Chose your side

("Zabludowicz is the ambassador who finances and personally deals with advancing the status of Israel, but on the other hand he has sharp criticism about the information services provided by Israel.' He is 'well-connected to [British] politics, and in recent months he has been one of the businessmen and contributors with very close relations with David Cameron, the Conservative candidate for Prime Minister, who, according to surveys, is viewed as certain to be elected. The evening of the day he is being interviewed, he asks to finish by 18:00 because, at 19:00 he is participating in a meeting of a select few with Cameron.")

  • This has 007 music,this link to weapons and relate to the owner of the gallery as he is an arms dealer.
Negative viewed video-video two out of three but two was presented
This is the negative video as he has this gallery because he sold weapons that kill people and he buys a gallery for his wife out of his arms dealing that made him one of the top 20 richest person in the UK.
007 gives the idea of action and weapons, but I want to show what he is and how he helped to kill many people by giving them weapons for money. you can say that if he didn't some else will.
He seen as an enemy to some people and considered a hero to others and I am trying to capture the point of both arguements.

I learned with working on the project that it is diffcult to work with imovie 09 when it comes to split screen as imovie 011 would have made the video much more clearer as well as given more of a message to the split screens it self. I preferred the hangover video to the 007 video as I wanted to the meaning to be hiden within the video. Where as the 007 video needs a different kind of split screens to show what I wanted it to mean.

If I were to do the project again I would re-film with a dolly and tripod to get at better quality of film, as well as start filming from the outside of the gallery. I would start filming as the location is interesting (chapel) and can reflect on his crimes also it can relate to a documentary format.
