2012, new year, lot of news!

Happy New Year Everyone!

Wishing you all lots of happiness, good health, and fulfillment in your professional and artistic projects! After all, we’re all brought together by the same passion: creation.

I want to take this opportunity to do something I didn’t do enough in 2011 — keep you updated more often, so you can stay informed about what’s happening on the site and what’s coming next!

Thank You All

A big thank you to everyone who has put their trust in me since the launch of the premium service a few weeks ago! There have been many of you, and it means a lot.
This support allows me to focus entirely on the site and to expand the tutorial library significantly — and that’s just the beginning.

One Free Month for All Premium Members

To thank all the early adopters who subscribed to premium accounts from day one, I’m happy to offer one additional free month to every premium member.
That way, you’ll be able to enjoy the new January tutorials and won’t feel penalized by the quiet period during the end-of-year holidays ;)

Adaptive and Mobile Streaming

There are many improvements planned for 2012, along with major investments to make your experience on the site even smoother and more enjoyable.
To start with — and this was missing from some of the recent tutorials, almost all tutorials are now fully accessible on mobile devices (iPhone, iPad, etc.).

In addition, all premium and beginner tutorials, as well as upcoming free ones, now feature adaptive dynamic streaming. Several versions with different bitrates are automatically served depending on your connection speed, ensuring you always get the best possible quality while keeping playback smooth, even on slower connections.
Those with faster connections will enjoy HD playback, while others will get lighter files that play seamlessly.

Plenty of good surprises are coming to the site in 2012… but I’ll tell you more about that soon :)

New Tutorials in January

As you’ve probably noticed, there haven’t been many new tutorials in recent weeks. Between the holiday season and other commitments, I couldn’t record as many as I’d hoped — but that’s about to change.
I plan to stick to a steady rhythm of at least one new tutorial per week, starting mid-January.

Why not sooner? Unfortunately, I’ll be away for a few days starting tomorrow for wisdom tooth surgery at a clinic. I’ll probably be a bit out of commission (and too swollen to speak into the mic 😅), but I’ll be back soon and ready to go!

So once again, I wish you all a Happy New Year, and I can’t wait to come back with fresh updates and new tutorials! See you around January 10th. Talk soon!
