    This guy is a really great teacher. The speed by which he goes, his organisation and reassurance and most importantly his passion about the subject. great stuff

      I couldn't agree more he is absolutely amazing the small pauses between his sentences and words. How he does not use bombastic words to articulate himself , he makes learning fun and user friendly.

    Absolutely brilliant. I have always found Photoshop rather daunting but these videos are definitely helping dispel some of the mystery. I can see myself watching episodes many times to help it sink in. Thank you for these very well produced and instructional videos.

  • @MichaelKantormusic
    @MichaelKantormusic 4 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    Still loving it. I will say this, you need to download the files. I usually never d/l files when doing tutorials, but this time I wanted to go all in. It makes a huge difference. I think you actually learn it when you follow along with the file and edit as he is editing. My .02 cents worth. Great job Aaron.

    • @mrozonky
      @mrozonky 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      do you mean 'learning by doing'? I'd never think about this, thanks! I always thought they stuff download files with some nasty viruses, that finally explode your hard drive >.< seriously life changing, TY!

  • @neil6477

    Phew. Learning a lot here Phlearn. I do find the pace about right and, although I do often have a few small issues when my settings are not the same as yours (for example with font size) I think I am, at long last, beginning to see just how power Photoshop is. Thank you for your work and allowing us to access it for free. Excellent!

    This was a really good video. Not only did you show how to use layers effectively, but you showed ways to be creative with them at the same time. One of my issues with PhotoShop, and I feel I have many, is that I use it mostly to fix problems. Using it to actively improve my photos would be a big help.
