1. For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
Glass Video- How glass is made just amazes me. How someone was able to figure out to make glass out of sand is incredible. Working with materials as hot as they do is very dangerous! I literally watched the guy actually doing the first steps of the glass making and watching the glass form in amazement.
Sculpture Video- Very, Very interesting to me overall. I was amazed by some of the facts and how long it takes to create one. Every time I pass a piece of stone now I will think that someone is able to turn this into a incredible piece of art. All the planning and rough drafts/practice a sculptor goes through and all the decisions they make is interesting.
2. How do the videos relate to the readings in the text?
3. What is your opinion of the films? How do they add depth to understanding of the topics: Sculpture, Installation, and Craft?
The video's related to the text by teaching some of the same ideas from the text but providing an actual video demonstration with it. The video's went in depth with how the materials are used and the characteristics of each piece of art, as did the text but as I stated, much more in depth on the steps to achieve the final product.
