Not to be outdone by Chase Jarvis’ new creativeLIVE training, NAPP is offering free training on Photoshop CS5 starting Monday, April 12.
The ‘free’ NAPP training applies to live webinars, as well as viewing at a later date. For creativeLIVE, if you miss the live webinar broadcast, you’ll have to pay to download the recorded version.

“The Last 3 Minutes” (above) is a new short from Shane Hurlbut and Bandito Brothers. Canon sponsored the short to show off the new 24p firmware upgrade on the 5D Mark II. I think it is quite a compelling film – not just due to the technical prowess of the 5D Mark II, but the artistic vision of Hurlbut and his team resonates in a way that many short films miss. Be sure to read the full run down on the production of “The Last 3 Minutes” on the hurlblog.
If you aren’t familiar with him, Shane Hurlbut has served as Director of Photography on several major films, including Terminator Salvation, We Are Marshall and Into the Blue, among others.
The hurlblog is one of my favorite blogs to read. If you’re interested in getting serious with video on your DSLR, you owe it to yourself to read every word Shane Hurlbut publishes over there.

Chase Jarvis has launched a new online learning resource for photographers and other imaging professionals – creativeLive. This is quite a bit more ambitious than Chase’s iPhone app, The Best Camera. Like his iPhone camera though, creativeLIVE has a rather unique tilt to it, in that it’s free to watch the sessions when they are live. If you want to watch them later, you can download individual classes for later viewing or if your schedule doesn’t permit you to be at your computer for live viewing.
creativeLIVE has an all-star cast of instructors coming up over the next couple of months, including Vincent LaForet on shooting video with DSLRs, Scott Bourne on Aperture 3, and Zack Arias on Studio Photography. And, next week, after the CS5 launch, there’s a whole group of classes planned for learning the new stuff in the CS5 suite.
creativeLIVE looks like a great learning resource. Hopefully, the business model will prove sound and it will be around for a long time to come. Right now, I’ve got April 29 circled on my calender for Vincent LaForet’s class.
