THE FIFTH ANNIVERSARY OF MUVI 05: MUSEUMS-VIDEO-FILM. FROM EVENT TO PORTAL WITH ONLINE ACCESS TO MUSEUM FILMS
Lada Dražin Trbuljak

Sažetak
From the first of this biennial series, the 2006 MUVI: museums-video-film, the event was announced as a research
project. MUVI has gone on along this path and developed
through all the five events since then, without ceasing constantly to involve new forms of communication and presentation of audiovisual contributions. The screening programme,
the lectures and the meetings of film and museum authors
and curators were the initial platform for the exchange of
knowledge. After that a start was made with the screening
of a foreign programme, with the organisation of workshops,
and from 2012 with a festival of films shot on mobile phones,
MUVIMOBIL.
From 2014 came the multimedia block MUVI lab, which
expanded research into moving images to multimedia projects
(Web sites, games, 3D animations, holograms, mobile apps,
audio guides, interactive kiosks, online exhibitions, virtual
museums and blogs).
During these five MUVIs, in the screening section of the programme, some 250 videos produced by Croatian and foreign
museums have been shown, and in the programme of the
project, some thirty consultants, from at home and abroad
took part.
The objective in the beginning was merely to start off research into the extent to which and in which way film was
featured in museums, and above all to make the first contacts
with heritage establishments that with their guidelines and
suggestions might be able to help us preserve it.
We are also of the opinion that the event itself, however much
it has attempted to collect as many as possible of the films
and videos created in the two-year intervals, did not alas manage to provide a complete image of the extent to which this
medium is used in museums. It was observed that very often
museums publish their videos on the many Internet hosting
sites (Vimeo, YouTube, Facebook and so on). There can be no
doubt that at the current time it is very desirable to use these
free services and promote the work of the museums, although
this writer concludes that publication on these sites does not provide a sufficiently professional archiving procedure, since
they are not entirely reliable – there is always a chance that
for some reason they will close down, and all the content will
become inaccessible. With technological advances, we also
have to face up to the nature of these very unstable media,
and the problem of the readability of files and their usability
in the future.
As well as a synthesis of work on MUVI to date, the paper
has also shown the results of research into information from
the Online Register of Museums which is run by the Museum
Documentation Centre, and collected by the means of a questionnaire. Analysis of the results provided an insight into the
current situation related to documentation collections of AV
holdings, the number of museum professionals dealing with
processing them and the number of units that museums keep
in these collections.
At the end of the article a short review is made of projects
in progress: from the pondering of a digital repository to a
look at the test phase of a portal providing online access to
museum films.
