Hi .. My hobby now is video editing and 3D related scene making. I had started this >16 months now on Blender and hope to contribute a little of what I learnt from this vast community as a return to what I had learn on those great and free tutorial around Blender use. I have a youtube video site that post everything (almost everything) I had learnt on Blender and relevant tools like GIMP, Inkscape, etc .. but had only started voice over/video tutorial recently. Appreciate feedback how I can make my tutorial easier to follow as it is not the same with other much better online tutorial.My youtube site:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwOSrEW-tqV4bhs3YAzBxTw/Hope to continue to contribute where time permits .. as I am still working.
