1. Explain why you selected each of the TWO videos you choose from the selection listed above
I chose "Albrecht Dürer: Image of a Master" and "Velazquez" and that is because I always choose many things based off of the title. 95% of the time a title really interest me to want to read or watch something.
2. For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned.
Watching "Albrecht Dürer: Image of a Master" the key concepts that I have learned would that he was making self portraits at the age of 13. He always enjoyed painting hands. He was extremely talented and traveled a ton and made his art even more beautiful within time. And also, each piece had an important meaning behind it. 
Watching "Velazquez" the key concepts that I have learned would be he was named court painter to Phillip the fourth. He often put meaning in his art work and wanted to capture reality and the truth. He was also extremely talented. 
2. How do the videos relate to the readings in the text?
The videos relate to the readings in the text because they educate us on the background of artist. 
3. What is your opinion of the films? How do they add depth to understanding of the readings and art concepts?
My opinion of the films would be WOW. I love that the artist put beautiful meanings and thought behind their work. 
They add more depth to understanding the readings and art concepts because they videos show us each important piece and tell us a story behind why it is important or why it has the name it has.
