在当代建筑实践中，精通一系列不断发展壮大的建筑软件变得越来越重要。几乎每一个工作都不再满足仅仅带着一个熟练的大脑和一支铅笔去应对。不同的工作需要不同的技能和不同类型的软件，但有一件事似乎是公认的——软件需求正在渗透各行各业。

In contemporary architecture practice, proficiency in an ever-widening array of architecture software is becoming increasingly important. For almost every job in the field, it is no longer enough to bring a skilled mind and a pencil; different jobs may require different levels of expertise and different types of software, but one thing that seems universally accepted is that some level of involvement with software is now a requirement.

软件的应用使得建筑师们的能力日益提升，然而它也带来了新的挑战：大学采取了完全不同的教学方法。一些通过开设相关课程和邀请专家授课，而另外一些更倾向于教授设计理论并期望学生利用空余时间自学软件。因此，建筑学的新毕业生们已经面临技能上的断裂，很多建筑师在上学前，AutoCAD还是一个工业标准软件，而新工具在近十年中不断被开发。

While software has opened a huge range of capabilities for architects, it also presents a challenge: universities have taken wildly different approaches to the teaching of software, with some offering classes and access to experts while others prefer to teach design theory and expect students to pick up software skills in their own time. New architecture graduates therefore already face a divide in skills – and that’s not to mention the many, many architects who went to school before AutoCAD was even an industry standard, and have spent the past decades keeping up with new tools.

在这一点上，互联网因此成为巨大的推动力量——提供教程，通常是免费的，只需一个链接（只要你知道去哪里看）。这就是为什么每日建筑希望你的帮助，一起来创建一个最佳建筑软件的清单。找出如何帮助并找到自己的短板让自己尽快开始。

我们希望你可以在评论中告诉我们你最喜欢的软件教程资源。就像我们以下的列表一样，让我们知道哪类资源正在受到关注：
建造之前的建模和绘图(软件如AutoCAD）
后期制作图像处理 (例如 Photoshop)

The Internet has therefore been a huge democratizing effect in this regard, offering tutorials, often for free, to anyone with a connection – as long as you know where to look. That’s why ArchDaily wants your help to create a directory of the internet’s best architecture tutorial websites. Find out how to help (and see our own short list to get you started) after the break.
In the comments, we’d like you to tell us your favorite sources for software tutorials. Just like our own list below, please let us know which of the categories the source focuses on:
Pre-production modeling and drawing (software such as AutoCAD, Sketchup, Rhino and – for the sake of simplicity – BIM programs such as Revit and ArchiCAD)
Image production (such as the V-Ray plugin for various software)
Post-production image manipulation (such as with Photoshop)

ArchDaily员工(以及一些朋友)一起拟了以下清单来帮助你打开思路完成列表：

通用教程网站

Lynda.com:你可能已经听说过这个网站,提供超过3500个课程和成千上万的个人视频教程,涵盖从摄影、商业到建筑软件。许多学生不知道的是,他们的大学可以为他们提供一个免费订阅。

Visualizing Architecture:Alex Hogrefe创造了一个全面的教程列表来创建引人注目的图片,被简洁地分成四类。大多数教程侧重技术方面,可以简单地通过使用SketchUp和Photoshop来实现。

Ronen Bekerman: Ronen Bekerman的博客,最重要的是,这里是一个看案例研究的绝佳之地。Bekerman定期贡献展示自己的工作,解释他们如何从建模到渲染后期制作阶段。

To start off the list, and give you an idea of the type of tutorials we’re hoping to feature, ArchDaily staff (with the additional input of some friends) have put together the following short list:
General Purpose Tutorial Sites
Lynda.com: You may have heard of this site, which offers over 3,500 courses and hundreds of thousands of individual video tutorials in everything from photography and business to architectural software. What many students don’t know is that their university may be able to provide them with a free subscription.
Visualizing Architecture: Alex Hogrefe has created a comprehensive list of tutorials for creating compelling images, split conveniently into four sub-categories. Most of the tutorials focus on techniques that can be simply achieved using just SketchUp and Photoshop.
Ronen Bekerman: Ronen Bekerman’s blog is, above all, a fantastic place to see case studies. Bekerman regularly features contributors who showcase their own work, explaining how they created a single render from the modeling stage to post-production.

建造之前(绘图、建模、BIM)

Autodesk’s Youtube Channel:毋庸置疑，Autodesk为自己的软件提供了广泛的资源。Youtube频道包含许多展示新功能和宣传视频。所以除非你正在寻找特定的内容，不然留意任何标记“入门”的内容。

Bond-Bryan BIM Blog: 邦德布莱恩的罗布•杰克逊自2013年以来已经发布了“BIM 博客”,专注于BIM相关新闻、案例研究和指导使用其他公司的ArchiCad BIM工具。

Nick Senske on Youtube:为北卡罗来纳大学的课程而开设,视频教程主要集中在犀牛建模

Plethora Project:何塞桑切斯的系列教程。关注大量的工具,也许有点游离于建筑标准，包括Unity3d游戏引擎,Autodesk Maya软件的动画,c#,Python和Javascript。通常一个网站包括越多普遍使用的犀牛和蚱蜢教程越多,就意味着更多人的关注。

NYCCTfab on Vimeo: 纽约市技术学院的建筑技术制造实验室创造了数量惊人的视频建模软件,包括Revit,犀牛和蚱蜢——他们在GIS甚至有一系列的视频。

Pre-Production (Drawing, Modeling, BIM)
Autodesk’s Youtube Channel: It almost goes without saying that Autodesk offers a wide range of resources for their own software. Their Youtube channel contains a number of instructional videos alongside showcases of new features and promotional videos - the list can be overwhelming at first, so unless there’s something specific you’re searching for keep an eye out for anything labeled “Getting Started.”
Bond-Bryan BIM Blog: Bond Bryan‘s Rob Jackson has been publishing on the company’s “BIM Blog” since 2013, focusing on BIM-related news, case studies and guidance for using ArchiCad, the BIM tool used by his company.
Nick Senske on Youtube: Created for the course he runs at UNC Charlotte, Senske’s video tutorials largely focus on modeling in Rhino
Plethora Project: Jose Sanchez’s series of tutorials focus on a number of tools that are perhaps less “standard” in architecture, including the Unity3d game engine, Autodesk’s Maya software for animations, and C#, Python and Javascript. However, the site also includes the more usual Rhino and Grasshopper tutorials, meaning there is something for almost everyone here.
NYCCTfab on Vimeo: New York City College of Technology’s Department of Architectural Technology Fabrication Lab has created an astonishing number of videos on modeling software, including Revit, Rhino and Grasshopper – they even have a series of videos on GIS.        

生产(渲染和图像创建的其他方式)

Simply Rhino Webinars: 虽然不是最全面的教程平台,该Youtube频道有一系列总计超过五个小时V-Ray犀牛的教程。

Visual Dynamics Website:这个V-Ray分销商逐渐增加3ds Max、犀牛、Sketchup的教程。到目前为止,只有3ds Max教程特别丰富,更多教程敬请期待。

Official V-Ray Website: V-Ray官方网站有教程,主要集中在3 ds Max和Maya。

Production (rendering and other forms of image creation)
Simply Rhino Webinars: Although not the most comprehensive of tutorial platforms, this Youtube channel has a series of videos about V-Ray for Rhino totaling over five hours.
Visual Dynamics Website: This V-Ray reseller is gradually adding sets of tutorials for the software in 3ds Max, Rhino and Sketchup, among others. So far, only the 3ds Max tutorials are particularly developed, but watch this space for more.
Official V-Ray Website: In a similar vein, the official V-Ray website has a range of tutorials, mostly focusing on 3ds Max and Maya.

后期制作(Adobe Photoshop和其他图像处理软件)

Vyonyx Tutorials:伦敦可视化工作室Vyonyx提供了一套小型的教程,主要关注如何在Photoshop中达到某种效果。还包括少量的教程，包括建模软件如犀牛和3 ds Max。

ARQUI9 Visualisation on Youtube:另一个可视化工作室在线分享他们的知识,迄今ARQUi9只有5个视频,但显然他们从添加人物到制作水中倒影的PS教程相当有用。

Post-Production (Adobe Photoshop and other image manipulation software)
Vyonyx Tutorials: London-based visualization studio Vyonyx offers a small set of tutorials, largely focusing on how to achieve certain effects in Photoshop. They also include a small number of tutorials focusing on modeling software such as Rhino and 3ds Max.
ARQUI9 Visualisation on Youtube: Another visualization studio who are sharing their knowledge online, ARQUi9 have only five videos to date, but their tutorials are clearly presented and cover useful techniques on Photoshop from adding people to images to creating convincing reflections in water.
