"I have seen hundrets of Photoshop presentations and the great majority show the same over-used techniques with boring pictures and very bad jokes. In contrast, Calvin Hollywood is a refreshing, generous, and talented teacher…and funny too! Consider me a Calvin convert from now on!"

Katrin Eismann "Photoshop Diva"

"News Flash! Photoshop goes Hollywood! Or should i say Calvin Hollywood. I recently came across Calvin´s work and i was totally blown away. Not only is he a great photographer, but he knows tips and techniques about Photoshop that are almost magical. If you´re a Photoshop user, then you should stop everything and take a look at some of his tutorials. Trust me on this one…."

Russell Brown, Sr.Creative Director Adobe Systems Inc

"Part of my job, as Editor of Photoshop User magazine, and president of the world´s largest Photoshop trade association, is to seek out the very best Photoshop instructors in the world today. While there are a lot of people out there who are incedible at Photoshop, very few can teach Photoshop on a world class level. Calvin Hollywood is one of those rare few. He´s taking Photoshop to new places, and introducing new techniques, and new ways of doing things that nobody out there is doing but Calvin. He is truly amazing!"
