online resources

 

Cunninglingo is a pool of resources geared towards learning various multimedia and design applications, not that multimedia isn't design! Everyone is welcome here but we are primarily supporting undergraduate art, design and new-media courses in South Wales and Bristol, and beyond. The site was also recently recommended to students at Helsinki University of Art and Design and Istanbul so you may come across some very strange email addresses hidden away on this site.

The site is pretty much always under construction and is constantly updated with new tutorial files with sections being written and added the 3d” and the text generator” front pages are available. Masses of new Director and Flash tutorial files have been produced in the last few years - nag us to put them up!

We are mainly concerned with Adobe Photoshop, Premiere (we looooove Final Cut but hey its a job), Macromedia Fireworks, Director, Flash & Dreamweaver, but if there's anything that you feel you could add or would like to see please email us. We also use After Effects, Quark Xpress, InDesign, FreeHand, Illustrator, Fontographer, Cinema 4D, Ashlar Vellum, Shade, Poser, hack a bit of Motion, RSS, XML, PHP, ASP, MYSQL, Maya, Java, C++, Processing, etc.

Anyway, you're here now so why don't you look around and see if there's anything useful amongst the growing list of resources we've provided.
