The first tutorial I picked was a tutorial on how to clear up blue sketch lines in a traditional drawing on Photoshop. The information from this tutorial is current. You can do all of the steps in the tutorial with the current form of photoshop that you could do in the 2016 version. The person posting the tutorial is Draw with Jazza, a well-known youtuber and illustrator with a variety of tutorials on traditional and digital illustration. He has also had a career in the animation industry. The types of gatekeeping mechanisms available on the video are the comments section and the like and dislike buttons. The information quality is good. It probably wasn’t pre-scripted as he goes off into other subjects while discussing the tutorial but it is still easy to follow and clear. I will definitely use Draw with Jazza’s tutorials in the future, and am already subscribed to his channel.

For the next tutorial, Glass Planet Vector illustration, the information from the tutorial is current. Illustrator’s tools have stayed the same since 2018. The person posting the tutorial is named Nate, who runs a channel called tutvid. The types of gatekeeping available are the comments section and the like and dislike buttons. The information quality is good, most likely not scripted, but not great. He speaks too fast and skips over important details like what feature is in what menu. I don’t think I will continue to watch these tutorials as they are too fast and skip over details.

The third tutorial I picked was Learn Illustrator in 5 minutes. The information in this tutorial is current, posted in 2017. Flow Graphics posted this tutorial, and the author seems to know how to use photoshop, and his branding seems official. The author also seems to know his way around illustrator, so he is probably a decent authority on using illustrator. HIs information is clear and easy to follow. He goes through all details and shows what tools do what and what menus to pick for each feature. The gatekeeping mechanisms include the dislike and like buttons and the comment sections of the video. I will definitely use this resource in the future as it is simple and easy to follow.
