Film directing career
Vania Heymann began his studies at the Bezalel Academy of Art and Design in 2010 in the Visual Communications track. That year Heymann created a video dealing with religious symbols through replacing them with a simple IKEA watering can; this homework assignment was posted to YouTube and has since become viral gaining hundreds of thousands of views on YouTube and Vimeo. Many of its viewers saw this video as an atheistic composition manifesting Russell's atheistic teapot.[1] A number of prominent atheist thinkers shared the video online and supported Heymann, including biologist Richard Dawkins and author Sam Harris.[2]
In 2011, his second year at Bezalel, Heymann created three videos as homework assignments, the videos were posted to YouTube and quickly became viral . The first video was a homage to the French series Bref, in which the video tells (very quickly) the story of a failed blind date. The second video was "Der Mensch" an opening title sequence for a would be Orthodox Western, whose main character frees Agunot. The third video was "shelf life," in which Heymann animated characters on food packaging in the refrigerator; the third video caught the attention of mainstream media in Israel.[citation needed]
In January 2013, the TV program Eretz Nehederet ("Wonderful Country") of Channel 2 broadcast a series called Bekizur ("in short") adapted from the French series, Bref, composed of two-minute episodes. Heymann directed the series and participated in writing the Hebrew script.[3] In April 2013 Heymann created another beer commercial this time for Maccabee beer, featuring Isaiah Mustafa. A YouTube video of the ad received one million hits.
In November 2013, the website of Bob Dylan released an interactive music video which Heymann created and directed for the song "Like a Rolling Stone; this song was first released in 1965 and had not previously had an authorized video.[4] The video allows viewers to flip through 16 television channels, which all feature characters who are lip-syncing the lyrics of the song.[5][6]
In December 2013, Time Magazine named the video best music video of 2013.[7] The video has since won many prizes including a Webby Award for Best Editing and 4 Gold Lions at the Cannes Lions in the Film Craft, Direct, and Branded Content & Entertainment categories.[8][9]
In 2016, Heymann Began collaborating with Gal Muggia on music videos and commercials, their first joint work was a Music Video for the Coldplay song Up and Up, they have subsequently directed music videos for artist such as DJ Snake, Tove Lo, Dua Lipa, Trevor Daniel and Selena Gomez.
