Video Review

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

The two videos that I chose to watch were “The Drawings of Michelangelo”, “Leonardo da Vinci: The Mind of the Renaissance”.I chose those two videos because their titles seemed interesting and it made me want to learn more on what they were about.

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

When watching “The Drawings of Michelangelo” I felt the main concept of this video was the comparison of the different pieces of work that he created and it as well focuses on the tools, and techniques artist use. In the second video “Leonardo Da Vinci: The Mind of the Renaissance” the main thing I learned was the life of Leonardo from birth to his death. Lastly, the video I saw was “”The night to Watch” this film basically focuses on the many things that came about during this era.

2. How do the videos relate to the readings in the text?

I feel like in all these videos can relate to the readings from the text in many ways. I felt the most important thing that these videos show is that it goes more in debt  on renaissance art and what the artist has contributed during this time, which is what the text is all about.

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

My opinion on the films is that they were much more interesting than last week’s videos. I felt the films I chose to watch were very detailed and informative. Overall the films added more debt to what I was learning about when reading the textbook.
