Agenda for the next couple of weeks!

It has been a while, not that i have been slacking off or anything... OK i have been slacking off, but mainly i have been looking at how to take this channel forward, and creating regular tutorials that are relevant to both beginners and intermediate users and also incorporating additional software tutorials such as GIMP and Krita. Although i haven't yet decided if i want to create a separate blog for each program or keep everything unified. considering though, that the aim of this blog is to help you the reader/viewer to get the best out of your digital art and as that means often crossing from one platform to another, it kind of makes sense to have everything in one place.
so with that in mind i will be completing an introductory series for absolute beginners covering the basics of :
1: installing and setting up blender
2: introducing the 3d viewport and toolbar
3: basics of object mode
4: basics of edit mode
5: modelling a simple thing
6: lighting and texturing in blender internal
7: lighting and texturing in cycles
8: rendering in blender internal
9: rendering in cycles
10: basic animating
11 basic rigging
12: rendering an animation
13:basic compositing
14: introduction to the video editor.

once the basics have been covered i will be able to move on to more advanced, fun stuff like designing scenes and doing short movies and stuff and introducing the other software. i will also be reviewing the free software that i have found around the interwebs, there are some surprising toys out there even from the commercial software houses so stay tuned for them!

anyway, back to work!
