Introducing the 8th Tuts+ Site – Phototuts+
Aug 17th in News
by Skellie
Today we kicked off a huge week at Envato (it's our 3rd birthday soon, don't you know?) with the launch of Phototuts+, our 8th site in the Tuts+ Network. There we'll be covering everything from beginner to advanced photography tips and techniques, post-processing, lighting and how to use your equipment with expertise. If you've ever wished you could take nicer photos, or to bump your nice photos into professional-level territory, Phototuts+ was created to help you!
Hit the jump to learn more about Phototuts+ and its editor, David Appleyard.
Skellie is Tuts+ Manager. She makes sure all the Tuts+ sites are awesome. You can follow her/the Tuts+ Network on Twitter via @tutsplus.
We'll be publishing a combination of step-by-step written tutorials and screencasts/video lessons. In most weeks we'll be publishing 2 - 3 high quality tutorials, so make sure to subscribe to the Phototuts+ RSS feed so you don't miss a thing.
If you think you have the skills to create a screencast or text and image tutorial for Phototuts+, it's easy to familiarize yourself with the guidelines and pitch your idea. We're hungry for user contributions and pay great money for tutorials.
Meet the Editor, David Appleyard
David Appleyard currently edits Envato's AppStorm blog, runs a successful design business and several other websites. David is also a passionate and skilled photographer, and in 2006 he founded a stock photography company with a partner. You can see a few of his photos in the Phototuts+ Flickr group, which, incidentally, you should also join!

Actually a Filmtuts/Videotuts website for the process of shooting video/film would be useful. Tutorials on lighting, camera composition, types of film & video cameras, steady-cams, cranes, dollies, studio vs. location shooting, basics of dialogue intensive scenes, shooting action, narrative vs. documentary, etc, etc etc. With the amount of equipment and techniques used in the capturing of video/film, there’s a plethora of material for tutorials.
