Module Six Video Review


1.       Through the Eyes of a Sculptor talked about a lot of key concepts.  It starts off by explaining about the certain stones that are usually used within the realm of sculpting.  It also talks about the restoration process and what the sculptor goes through in order to complete the process.  They also go in depth on why they replace some sculptures with a recreation in order to preserve a building.  Glass and Ceramics also talks about some key concepts.  How to create glass is one of the main concepts of this movie.  It talks about glass blowing and stained glass windows.  The main idea is to talk about the process of creating glass and ceramics. 

2.       The movies called Eyes of a Sculptor and Glass and Ceramics relate to the readings in the textbook in many ways.  The textbook talks about each separate topic, but doesn’t go as in depth as the movies do.  So, the textbook introduces the topics to its readers, and the movies continue the learning as you go through the movies.

3.        I found the movies interesting.  I thought they were a little long, but they really added to what we read in the textbook.  The movies also help to understand the topics of sculpture, installation, and craft because they really break them down.  They talk about the process of each, what materials go into each, and how an artist can complete what they are trying to complete.
