Nooby YouTube Teaching Vids

FattyMcJ · Feb 23, 2010

Hey all,

I did a quick search and didn't find anything like this in the Beginners' Forum so I thought I'd share what I'd found; and now what others have found for us "Visual Learner" types.

Excellent Instructional Seminar and other tutorials by David Morris
*Just a quick note, it starts out quite lame...but give it a minute.

From "MasterPhotoWorkshops" :
A plug for DVD sales and other YouTube freebies for us visual learners

From "LearnMyShot" :
Another excellent video tutorial site!

From "chammer" :
Belgian professional photographer Bert Stephani; KILLER stuff!
*Tip on this one, turn the sound up a bit, he's REALLY soft spoken.
YouTube - ppsop2009's Channel - Bryan Peterson who authors the famously recommended book "Understanding Exposure".
YouTube - markhyo's Channel - Mark Warren has a couple really nice beginning Strobist type videos again for those who are just starting to play with off camera lighting.
YouTube - marloon88's Channel - This guy has a nice getting started video for Strobist, and from the looks of his new video is going to start doing weekly video blogs with tutorials on Strobists and tips, do it yourself projects, and product reviews. I liked his Strobist getting started video but I'm not sure how the others will be yet. Will keep an eye out though.

From "tissa" :
FontanaKnowledge's Channel on YouTube
*He's a bit goofy, but it's all good stuff for visual learners!

I'll update this first post for new people finding this thread so it's easier and more concise, PLEASE keep posting your VIDEO tutorial suggestions!

If it helps one other person, besides myself, then this post will have been worth it to me :mrgreen:

Happy Shooting!

-Jason

i look forwarded to viewing them in greater detail.

This is pretty good....I have a site for beginning photographers and it's free...take a look and let me know what you think LearnMyShot - learn how to photograph anything

Pretty interesting videos

chammer · Feb 23, 2010

good stuff. the set i've been watching more and more of lately (over and over again because they're that good) is the confessions of a photographer...

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqMI72jsXRQ]YouTube - Confessions of a Photographer - episode 01[/ame]

the guy is brilliant, and for those starting out with strobist type setups they should be a big help on how to achieve some nice lighting moods and even some general ideas for their own shoots.

i think there's 7 or 8 in the series so far, but he's also linked to another set of videos which you can see entire photo shoots.

*edit*
almost forgot, if you watch none of the others definitely watch video 4. what he does for the last shot with the strobe is awesome. 'the bounce squad' video of his is top notch as well.

srinaldo86 · Feb 23, 2010

i highly recommend this guy!
YouTube - FontanaKnowledge's Channel

he is funny, he is knowledgeable and he makes it possible to understand the basics and more in-depth things

Thanks for the useful resources guys.

FattyMcJ · Feb 23, 2010

This is taking off! I love it! I personally have watched all of the available information and learned a TON!

I'll go ahead and update the OP so that new ppl finding this thread can find all the useful information in one easy post, of course giving credit to the member for the suggestion. :thumbup:

Maybe if we get enough VIDEO tutorials and such, it can be a sticky for visual learners such as myself

wasnt sure how this was going to go, but seeing it now i have two more that i watch frequently, and another that i found a while back:

YouTube - ppsop2009's Channel - bryan peterson who authors the famously recommended book understanding exposure.

YouTube - markhyo's Channel - mark warren has a couple really nice beginning strobist type videos again for those who are just starting to play with off camera lighting.

YouTube - marloon88's Channel - this guy has a nice getting started video for strobist, and from the looks of his new video is going to start doing weekly video blogs with tutorials on strobists and tips, do it yourself projects, and product reviews. i liked his strobist getting started video but im not sure how the others will be yet. will keep an eye out though.
