Film Sketches of Frank Gehry


Film Sketches of Frank Gehry

 

I found the video more interesting than I thought it was going to be.  I like his design and thought he was a pretty unique guy.  There were some pretty cool places that he designed.  One of my favorite parts of the movie was when he was working with another guy from his office creating a building of some sort and they were just sitting and looking at it.  Then he would say something and they would be cutting the most RANDOM shapes or curves of some sort and just tape them on.  And he would say... I like it.  Something that I took from the video was how "fragile" you picking your life career is.  He could have stopped so many times or focused on other things he like but always just had a passion for this kind of stuff.  He met the right people at the right time and it worked out very well for him.  BUT I do have to agree with some of the critics when they say his designs are repetitive and "random" because they are.  And I know they are after watching the video.  All in all I enjoyed the film.
