1. For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
Sculptor video- I learned that you have to make molds before you can make a sculpture, and the molds capture every little detail. I kind of thought you just made it with one piece, I never knew it was such a process.
Ceramics video- Sand is burned and made into glass (when other things are added). Glass is blown (creating a "bubble" and shapes the hot glass while it is in a giant oven) into the shapes that it is sold in like bowls or cups.
Installation video- Installation art has many different pieces of art all together as one giant piece. I had never heard of 20:50, and I didn't know that installations were interactive and you could walk through them.
2. How do the videos relate to the readings in the text?
The videos bring new light to the text and give other examples and show these examples. The videos also define these categories in depth.
3. What is your opinion of the films? How do they add depth to understanding of the topics: Sculpture, Installation, and Craft?
I enjoyed the films, especially the glass making film. I have been to Corning and I find glass blowing very interesting, and have done it myself.
