BIGGER, FASTER, BETTER!!!
After a HUGE amount of work, the Michael The Mentor online photography school has been officially updated and reloaded. There are probably a few more needed tweaks here and there, but this system is SOOOOO much better than the older one. Updates include:
– Bigger videos in a custom MA Flash Player.
– HTML based, not flash- This means improved search engine rankings.
– Direct Linking Capability (hyperlink to each lesson directly), before we could only link to each lesson group.
– 2 new Composition Lessons (Contrast and Dutch Tilt)
– Ability to add more lessons quickly and easily.
– Direct links of each lesson to thread on the forums!
– Download each lesson to your Ipod/iPhone (this part is not quite finished but should be in a few weeks).
– Banner ads
The best part about this set up is that I can easily add lessons. The last system we were using was all done in flash and it was EXTREMELY tricky to add lessons (if not impossible) and I was limited to 10 lessons in each group. This set up is paving the way for me to add as many new lessons as I would like, and trust me, there are MANY to come as soon as the Photoshop DVD is completed.
A very big thank you to the fabulous Programmer Brock Martin for making this possible. Great job Brock!
Enjoy!

Love your blog. I found it through someone elses. Your work is phenominal! I’ve always loved photography but have never actually done it. I’ve played with it before but I don’t have all the proper equipment, camera and software to really do it. I love your work though, seriously amazing!
Just checked out your updates – VERY NICE JOB!! Smooth and Speedy!
I really don’t like the dutch tilt. Really, really, really don’t like it. Maybe in certain situations when i am trying to get the entire object into the picture. Otherwise it should not be used.
Well I like it. MA pulls it off pretty well I think…
Great Job Michael!
Great Micheal! Once again, thanks for making it available to us all!!!!
I just purchased a canon 40D– this is my first digital SLR and i love it. The online classes have been so helpful. I’m glad I stumbled on your site!!! Ive been shooting for years with a 35mm canon AE1 and developing in B/W, and I’m getting the hang of the 40D pretty quick, but i’m terrible with computers. Any advice for where to go for help? Planning on any training videos for computer dummies? …
