Digital Tutors Are Your Online Tutorials
By Joel Wannamaker
Digital Tutors is the name of a company that specializes in providing
training and support for designers and other individuals who work
with various video editing and creating programs, such as a Photoshop
tutorial, as well as other artistic software.
It is also a term that can be used by anyone who provides training
in the electronic medium, usually through the form of videos tutorials
that are made available for anyone to download. Almost all of
these videos are free to use and if the tutors are reimbursed
financially, then it would usually be through website ads.
Short Movie Files Online
The way a digital tutor tends to share their work is by creating
a movie file that usually consists solely of an opening title
and then just a one-take point-of-view shot as the tutor goes
through a particular process from start to end.
These can be any length of time but for most techniques there
would be an average of ten minutes per tutorial video. These videos
are then uploaded to a site that specializes in providing this
kind of tutoring service or a site like
www.youtube.com
where any videos can be posted. People interested in learning
about the particular technique being demonstrated can then watch
or download the movie file.
Project Files Accompanying The Video
Often digital tutors will also provide project files that go
along with their videos. These files can be downloaded and opened
in the program that is being discussed. This allows the person
learning to work with the same files that are used in the video
and get comfortable with the techniques and processes before making
a review of their options with their own files. Often these project
files will be at a lower resolution to prevent people from simply
copying the work of the tutor for financial gain.
The other way that digital tutors provide support is through
comment sections and email. Usually there will be space for people
who have watched and tried out the video tutorial to post their
comments any offer other advice they can share with others.
The person who made the video will often comment when appropriate,
and in addition they will usually provide an email address so
people can send their questions and feedback. In this way, if
someone is having trouble applying the techniques shown to their
own project, they can obtain support directly from the tutor.
Popular In The Design And Video Industry
In the design and video industry, digital tutors are a source
of a lot of ideas and the sharing of successes. With the speed
at which programs are updated, there are new videos tutorials
being made all the time.
Again, because they free, they are incredibly popular and are
considered to be a great way for people to stay relevant in a
dynamic field. A lot of time and money can be saved through the
use of a tutoring service such as this, and many people and websites
provide these videos, which are well worth checking out by anyone
working in that particular industry.
