Tutoriels

Lynda.com is a huge collection of online courses that you can take at your own speed and on your own time. They cover every imaginable creative discipline, software, and digital skill.

Adobe, makers of Photoshop, Acrobat, Premiere, Illustrator, InDesign and more, offer free online instruction and tutorials for all of their software.

For Apple, there are various tutorials on YouTube. Lynda.com’s tutorials, however, are the gold standard and are recommended by Apple.

Masterclass is an online source of master classes with some of the most famous names in their respective fields. Ken Burns and Documentary Filmmaking, Annie Leibovitz and Photography, Martin Scorcese and Filmmaking, and many more. These classes are paid, but very possibly worth the modest cost given the depth of the courses and the expertise of the teachers. (Blake subscribes to Masterclass.)

Spike Jonze’s 4-minute video for the Apple Homepod is a great example of (nearly) wordless, highly cinematic, and concentrated storytelling. This article breaks the video’s structure down so you can see how it’s been put together.

Designed by Apple

Animation

Animation is an extremely complicated medium in which to work. It is beyond the scope of this project to provide any meaningful tutorials or resources. However, this video on YouTube – 5 Types of Animation – is a short (8 minute) introduction to the main types of animation, and how each of them work.

If animation is your medium of choice, we strongly recommend that you identify what kind of animation you would like to pursue, and then research what tools and experience will be necessary to create your project.

Animation has been an historically expensive medium – first, heavily dependent on the meticulous work of animation artists, and more recently on prohibitively expensive software and computer hardware necessary to bring one’s animated project to life. Increasingly there are online resources that make animation more accessible to the individual. For that reason, we again encourage you to explore the types of animation and how to accomplish your objectives within the limits of your resources.
