I'm one of those people that in order to really learn something I need to practice it, with reference materials. Especially with Photoshop. And as a photographer, the desire to document is everpresent. So, I've come up with a grand plan to make some basic little how-to's for a friend, who I've assisted a bit in the camera & computer - hardware setup, but she's about to head off on a big aussie road trip, and I need to know that she has the tools and references to make the most of it all! What better way to learn than to teach?
The problem is, I know I've still got a long, loooong way to go. There is so much I don't know, don't understand, and it's not such an easy thing to admit at this stage in the course. But that kind of attitude won't get me far - there's an infiite amount of knowledge to gain and I will never master it all! But at the moment, I have the resources available - the people available to me at RMIT are invaluable - the best! All I have to do is ask.
So this is where I ask. I'm going to begin a series of how-to's, but this time I will include the stuff I don't know. It will give me something to bring to consults and staff, something to google, something to look for, specifically, when I don't know where to start or if I can't remember what it was that I wanted to know. And, if anyone in a similar position as me ever reads anything here, hopefully they'll find comfort in my questions.
I've always tried to be that kid in the tute who's not too scared to ask the stupid questions.
