WDIGTS Research

My current research consists of a lot of books, websites, and videos. I'm comparing and contrasting how other people organize learning these subjects from the ground up, and seeing what I like and don't like (based on my own learning experience). I'd like to give a list of recommended books, as well as the website, video, and picture links that I will be providing. I still enjoy getting information through books, and I usually have no trustworthy source for recommending them. I've purchased a lot of video resources, throuhttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifghout my learning experience. One ofhttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif them was a video seminar by Vincent Laforet. This was very extensive, especially for video. Another video seminar was released, similar to his, by Philip Bloom.

I'm almost done with Vincent Laforet, and then I willhttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gif move on to Philip Bloom. I have a few more videos to consult, and then I should have a final list for my video section.

In the realm of Photography, I have a lot of videos that I've been going through, including those by Joey L., Zack Arias, and Dean Collins.

For both video and photography, I have many more resources that I am looking through, but right now I am focusing on resources that are not free, to see how I can cover all of the bases that they cover through the free materials online.

I have over 35 books in the realm of video and photography that I'm consulting. I find that looking through table of contents sections of these books is helping with the organization of information. [Again, there's no reason to re invent the wheel.]

Graphic design is a little bit different. As far as http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.giffree resources on the internet go, graphic design has had so many that I haven't ever needed to pay for any video training. Video and photography training were pretty exclusive, when compared to graphic design. But, since the rise of things like YouTube and cheap hosting, photography and video have been catching up. So, I have only Lynda and a few other paid graphic design resources to look at. I feel comfortable with this, though, because of the extensive options that we have in the realm of free resources for graphic design. I have plenty of graphic design books to supplement this section of the website.

I'm excited to get through more information! It's nice, being able to do research about things that I thoroughly enjoy!
