If you understand from that point, move forward.

You will learn more in an afternoon at a show with someone in the biz, then you are EVER going to be told on ICQ, or on a board. That is just the fact of the matter. Mainstream, or adult, that is honestly the nuts and bolts of it.

However, you can go to NP or some other board that talks about camera shit. Even a photography board would help over just looking for adult help. As some will tell you, go to a community college, and take some photography classes.
