Module 11- Blog Video Review

1. Explain why you selected each of the TWO videos you choose from the selection listed above.
I chose The Mystical North: Spanish Art from the 19th century to the present because being Hispanic I wanted to learn more about the art aspect of my culture.
I chose Dada and Surrealism Expressionism because I was curious to find out what that is. 
2. For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
The first video was interesting because I learned about an artist named Goya which is funny because that is a brand that Hispanics commonly use for their cooking ingredients.
The second video just showed different schools and art events. 
2. How do the videos relate to the readings in the text?
The readings in the book were more informative than the videos
3. What is your opinion of the films? How do they add depth to understanding of the readings and art concepts?
I liked the idea of the Spanish Art video but I didn't like how either of the videos executed their ideas.

Why? -A theoretical aspect of color that fascinates me is that some words or school subjects have a color registered in our minds. Also that some colors can make us feel hungry. This is interesting because I've never thought of it in this depth. The furthest I thought of a color was "What's your favorite color?" or "Does this color go with me?" 3. In the Color video, what made the biggest impact on you in regards to color and it's effects on emotions? -The bi...

Logo Design

1. Discuss what you thought about creating your logo. I'm not an artistic person so this was not only a frustrating process it was also very difficult because I had to force myself to be creative and find something that's significant to me.  2. Describe the process: creative thinking skills and ideas you used in the logo creation. At first I thought it was supposed to be a logo of my name so it was hard to figure out an object that represented me and it fit all 8 letters of my name. I settled with doing my nickname which I got in my sophomore year of high school. It's "Jelly" and I got it because I had an art teacher who refused to pronounce my name correctly after my correcting him multiple times. He used to call me "Najelly" and my friends decided it was a good nickname. After I chose that name I was originally going to make it in the shape of a jam bottle but it was hard to design in so I did it in a gel shape. 3. What was the most important ...
