Now that the iPhone has sent the the common point-and-shoot camera the way of Kodachrome, there’s no excuse for bad pics.
Designer and photographer Dan Marcolina wrote a well-received book on iPhone Photography called iPhone Obsessed. Now he’s got an iPad app companion to the book, which teaches even more tips and tricks.
iObsessed Companion from dan marcolina on Vimeo.
The iObsessed Companion, subtitled ‘more mad experiments with photo apps,’ offers 90 minutes of video tutorials, more than 47 photography apps reviewed and used in innovative ways plus a huge range of app manipulated/combined photo styles with over 150 images explained. It goes for $4.99 on iTunes.
User Chris Lae had this to say about it: “A lot of great app suggestions and tutorials. I think the best part of the book is that it’s interactive. Scan the tags with your phone and BOOM! You’re then taken to a step-by-step tutorial of the current picture you’re viewing…”
We have promo codes to give away and will be featuring a gallery of user pics made with the companion app on Cult of Mac.
To win, write a caption for this pic (as always: keep it clean, make us laugh).
