Digital Sketchbooks: Using tablets to support a museum art visit

This series of 5 short videos gives an overview of incorporating an iPad or tablet into a museum visit. The aim of these videos is to show how the use of iPads and tablets in a museum or classroom should not be a daunting one, but rather how the traditional paper sketchbook can work hand-in-hand with its touchscreen counterpart. The podcasts outline the use of three artistic apps – 123d Catch, Brushes 3 and Pic Collage. The series takes the viewer through each application and an expert gives advice and best use tips for each one.
