Creative Sessions

"Sessions are blocks of articles, interviews, tutorials and content on a particular creative subject.

Sessions are hosted around the Tuts+ network depending on where each article fits best. So for example web design posts might appear on Psdtuts+ or Nettuts+. This site is like a table of contents for each session.

The aim is to provide lots and lots of mini courses on different topics! That way you can get a variety of knowledge about the creative fields."

Working in a creative field, I found it to be best practice to do as many tutorials as is humanly possible. This is because it is the only way to stay current with techniques and best practices and allows you to experiment and enhance your newly learned skills.

The Tutsplus.com network is the best tutorial network; bar-none. Through their sites you can learn everything from flash animations to backend web-developement (if that's your thing).

Unlike most tutorial sites, the Tutsplus Creative Sessions is a series of tutorials on specific topic which are all nicely put together for the views pleasures. Currently, the Sessions site is playing host to the topic of character design and has some really nice write-up on the values of sketching designs first before moving them to the digital world; something people don't do nearly as much as they should.

This is a definitely a site to watch!
