Module Six - Blog: Video Review

When watching the videos it is easy to relate the information to what was read in the text. The key concepts I got from the video Eyes of the Sculptor were the processes of creating sculptures and the thought process coming first hand from an artist himself. This relates to the text because the chapters read also discuss the processes of sculpture. Seeing this video adds depth to my understanding of sculpture because  I am able to see how it is actually done rather than just reading about it. Seeing the sculpting experience from an actually artist broadens my horizon about the subject and allows me to understand it more. From the video about glass and ceramics, the key concepts I got from that video were the fact that glass is all around us and its uses are really limitless. I think we don't really realize how many things are made from glass and how it is such a universal material. This relates to the text because in the text we read about the beginning of the use of glass and how it has made its impact on our history. In the video, we see more of how glass and ceramic is used in modern day. Regardless of time period, both materials are very popular. The video added to my knowledge by seeing the process of making glass and ceramic and what it can be made into.
