Module 8 Video Review

1.  Explain why you selected each of the three videos you choose from the selection listed above.

I choose the video More human than Human because it was a requirement.  

I choose Late Gothic Art and Architecture and A World Inscribed because they seemed to be interesting.  

2.  For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.

One of the key concepts I learned from More Human than Human was the emphasis on some parts of the Venus of Willendorf sculpture.  Why some parts are enlarged and way others are smaller then normal. Also talk about the human body and why we see it the way we do. The Key concepts of Late Gothic Art and Architecture was to take a closer look at Gothic art.  It talks about Gothic sculptures and other artworks.  The key concepts of a World Inscribed was how writing became to be and also took us through history of where it started.  

3.  The videos relate to the reading because each of the topics mentioned in the videos I watch were in the chapters of the book.  The book talks about sculptures, architecture, and printing and writing.  

4.  What is your opinion of the films? How do they add depth to understanding of the readings and art concepts?

I think each of the vidoes were good.  They all added a deeper understanding to the readings of the book.
