The Videos are Coming! The Videos are Coming!
While our ambition certainly has exceeded our available time for this lil’ EightShapes Unify project, we have made some steady progress in providing differentiated content that will help you create better design and deliverables.
Video Training
A piece of that puzzle is demystifying tool- and technique-specific topics through online instructional videos. Wireframes and deliverables aren’t all that hard, but if you don’t get the zen of things like components, modularity, styles and so forth, EightShapes Unify can seem like a whole lotta overkill. The basics shouldn’t be that hard.
Therefore, we’re beginning to author online course modules (yup, modular, big surprise) that will teach you everything from the basics (that’ll be free) to more advanced techniques (probably at an affordable premium). We’re so excited about this that I couldn’t help but share a comp of our video course page, which depicts a collection of 16 sequential videos through a broader topic.

Your Feedback
So, what do you think? What kinds of videos would you find most helpful? What do YOU want?
This will be a welcome resource to using your fabulous materials. I agree they are a bit overwhelming at first.
I think this is a great resource. I really believe in using InDesign for wireframing, but I am so rusty, I hadn’t used InDesign since CS. I’ve also seen France give this as a presentation, so I’m very glad to have the tutorial online. Great work!
