Module 11

I chose the videos The Mystical North: Spanish Art from the 19th Century to the Present & Dada and Surrealism. I chose the first one because since my culture is Hispanic I found it interesting and wanted to learn more about Spanish art since this is my background. I then randomly selected Dada and Surrealism.
The key concepts I learned in the first video was about using dark colors to portray dark, gloomy images. In the second video I learned about artists using their artwork to get messages across and to demonstrate lessons.
These videos relate to the readings because they describe the concepts learned in the video and describe them in a deeper meaning.
Overall I liked the videos but after a while they became boring. They did not keep me as entertained as previous videos.

Modules 7's video reviews

In the prairie school clip, one of the key concepts that I learned was about architecture becoming a style. This was something that became natural to society, and this is what made it a style. In the second video architecture as art it was described that architecture was something that becomes a language that flourishes more and more as time goes on. This means that it becomes something that is used in the everyday life. The videos relate to the readings in the text because in the text the history of architecture and how the structures of buildings, and designing came about. In my opinions I think these films were very informative and they were able to explain to viewers more in-depth about architecture, and the background behind it. I loved it because construction interests me so I love learning more about those things. I chose the films that I watched by random selection. I didn’t know what exactly they would be about but I am glad I picked the ones that I did because t...

Module 4

My thoughts on creating a Value Scale are that I thought this project was creative, and cool. Before this class if someone were to ask me what a Value Scale was I would not be able to describe what that was. Now that I have created one I am able to explain the purpose of one, and what it can be used for. While creating the Color Wheel I was a bit challenged at first because I wasn't sure if I would make the colors correctly like it was shown in the video. After I had noticed that I did it correct, and it became fun to watch the colors blend together, and produce other colors.  The media that I enjoyed working with the most was the color wheel. This is because it was more hands on involving the paint, and brushes. I like working with paint, and painting things and although we were not instructed to paint a object or create a picture with it, it was still fun to put the colors together, and see what can be created from that.  In my opinion an important discovery that I ha...
