I'm letting you in on a secret.
Why? Because I'm so darned sweet. Well, maybe not always, but the truth is that I want you to become a comfortable user of Photoshop and Photoshop Elements so you can create better meme's, newsletters, photographs, book covers, business cards...you get it.
And if you see a great bundle of fonts or artwork or patterns etc, I want you to feel like you can immediately put them to good use.
My secret guru? Jesús Ramirez who created The Photoshop Training Channel.
I asked him to give us a bit of why he started doing these YouTube vids...for free.
I started PTC because I wanted to teach people what I was good at. I always thought about making a YouTube channel that would be like what I would want to watch when I was learning. I wanted to teach projects that were not only fun but also teach people solid foundations and efficient ways of working.
The problem with YouTube is that many people teach who never worked professionally or who don’t have any real-world experience, so a lot of misinformation is passed along. I try to make my tutorials fun, but I also teach Photoshop in a way that will apply to real-world working environments. I try to use non-destructive techniques, follow industry standard conventions, mention legal aspects when necessary, and just try to inform people about how real pros work. That is often the difference between a good design and a great design (or photo).
Below are 3 of his many, many videos, giving you a taste of what he can do.
