like to download all of the above.
Yes, good thought! And you will be able to… If you get the Media Player, you can download and play videos locally on your computer. More CS5 content is being added daily (including demos and tutorials) – just enter “CS5” in the Player’s Search box.
Now this is cool
Need to learn Adobe Premiere CS5 and would like to know if you have step by step videos for this training.
We currently work with Adobe Premiere 6.5 and need to learn the differences as soon as possible.
Then we will need to learn After Effects, and Encore.
Where would you suggest is the best place to get these videos in sequence to learn?
Hi Mary, there are over 3 hours of free tutorials linked in the post above for Premiere Pro CS5.5, After Effects, and Encore – so you could start with those…
After, check out this separate free 3-hour tutorial just on After Effects.
You’ll also find more free training videos with a quick search on Adobe TV.
Lynda.com is another very excellent source for a ton of step-by-step, in-depth training on all Adobe products (many different versions), so you may want to visit them too.
Hope this helps and good luck!
i like this website & i am very interested in this site
This website is great. I like it.
I need your help, I want to design a student information system for my school.
Hi Travis, these lessons are a great place to start if you’ve got CS5, or check out 30 additional hours of tutorials if you’ve got CS6 or Creative Cloud.
There’s also over 1,000 pages of free CS6 e-books you can download, or three professional Creative Suite training courses, again at no charge.
Seem to have lost my installation disc for CS5 Extended Student/Teacher Edition.
Have the box it came in and have it installed on my desktop PC.
Want to be able to work with clients in the field…so would really like to install it on my new laptop.
Is it possible to download it and use numbers of the box or some registration I hopefully did?
Hi Michael,
