1. For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
Architecture: In this video, I learned more about the aspects of architecture and why buildings are constructed the way they are. There are a few problems that are involved like wind and earthquakes that disrupt a building more as the building gets higher. This video clip also includes adding electricity to buildings and what it would be like with a “smart” building.
Imperial Rome: This videos key concepts surround the architecture that built Rome and its neighboring cities. This video breaks down specific buildings and describes how they are built and their purpose of the structure.
2. How do the videos relate to the readings in the text?
These videos relate to the text because they both describe the history of architecture and the chapter is a summary of both videos, modern architecture as well as the famous architecture of Ancient Rome.
3. What is your opinion of the films? How do they add depth to understanding of Architecture?
I believe that the videos did in fact add to my understanding or architecture. Between both videos, I got a modern and historic view of the architecture for the two cultures and the designs implemented. I learned a little more about the wind blowing around taller buildings too.
4. Why did you choose the films that you watched?
I chose the videos I did solely because they looked the most interesting and they are the shortest two of the four videos. (hey, I’m being honest)
