Explain Everything - Dark Room Printing


Today I used an app that I haven't heard of before called Explain Everything.I used it to explain how to print in a digital darkroom.


It's a really useful app cause you can create a little movie that anyone can watch. I think it could be a really good tool in education, especially in photography, because you can create little tutorials that your students can access at any time. I think it's a create idea,as a student, to be able to go back online and re watch how to do something that I might have forgotten by the time I've gotten home. You could follow the tutorial as well. If the video was on a specific Photoshop action, as a student at home or after class, I could open Photoshop and follow the video step by step, then pause when I'm finding something a bit tricky. Or I can go back if I missed something, or watch it again and again until I understood the tutorial. 

What else is great about this app is that you can add web browsers, so anything from Youtube, or PDFs online. You can draw on it, add photos, record video and sound. It's a really interactive tool! 

I am really impressed with this little app, big thumbs up! :D

  1. A good review, very positive and encouraging as always. What's a PDF? What do you mean by Photoshop? Where can I use explain everything? How can I get it?
