The Christmas/New Years holiday allowed me to get caught up on some podcasts that I had fallen behind on. And in one case, it allowed me the chance to watch all the podcasts of one title I had mentioned here, but never had the time to watch. (It was put on the back burner during my recent move.)
WOW! Was I ever missing out by not watching it sooner.
The podcast is The InDesigner .
Again, allow me to say WOW!
As you might guess from the title, the podcast is about Adobe InDesign. The first few episodes were audio-only, but it's now video and what a difference it makes.
Unless you consider yourself an InDesign expert, you're going to learn something. And unlike some of the Photoshop podcasts I subscribe to (which are excellent) each InDesigner episode is going to give you something that you'll probably be able to put into use immediately.
Host Michael Murphy is an Adobe InDesign Certified Expert and works as a designer for a what I'm guessing is a trade magazine. When you see samples of his work that he uses to illustrate InDesign techniques, you're going to understand just how amazing InDesign can be.
I subscribe to about eight design-related podcasts, all of them valuable and full of stuff I can use in my business. But The InDesigner is the only one of these podcasts that I actually save on my computer so I can refer back to it if I have to. (Some of this stuff is easy to forget unless you use it everyday.)
The podcast is free, so if you're an InDesign user and not subscribed to it, you're flat out missing the boat. Get yourself started on the right foot this year, download all the "back issues" and then keep up with the new ones.
I tried finding a podcast related to Quark since I do have to use that software from time to time, but came up empty. If you know of something, let me know.
