Module 6

1. The glass and ceramics video were simple. It discussed the process, materials, as well as the uses of ceramics. A key concept amongst many from the video on sculptures was the mental and physical process of creating sculptures.

2. The videos relate to the text as a more visual explanation of the readings.  In the reading a lot of materials are discussed and in the videos one can see how these materials are used in many ways. For instance, in the ceramics video "slip" was something that caught my attention. In high school when my 3D art class used clay, we had a method called "Slip and Score" which was how we assembled other clay parts together to make one.

3. The films were very interesting to me, Especially the sculpture video because it gives a greater understanding of the process. I liked the way that it began based on Emmanuel Fillion's methods of preparation, the materials he used, his experience, as well as other artist and the history of gather certain materials (marble)
