WHAT IS LIVE FROM LOCKDOWN?<\/h2>\n

Each week Colin Smith has been going live on youtube. We do a live Photoshop show. This includes tutorials, tips, challenges, prizes, Q+A and interaction in the chats.<\/p>\n

This was started as a way for us to get away from the madness of the global lockdown for an hour a week. It s a time where the PhotoshopCAFE.com and the Youtube CAFE Crew Family all come together. This happens every Thursday at 1pm Pacific time.<\/p>\n

This is a different format than the usual Tuesday tutorials and is more of an interactive format and we tend to go a little deeper into certain things as well as exploring multiple ways of doing things. The people attending these live events absolutely love it and they return every week for more.<\/p>\n

Im going to share each weeks replays here<\/p>\n

You really should join live if you can, its a LOT of fun and there are hundreds of us all coming together in community.<\/p>\n

You can join the \u201clive from lockdown\u201d livestream here at 1Pm every Thursday (Its free)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
