    I've worked with AE for decades, right from the beginning. This is a great tutorial for beginners. One suggestion, Peter. When referring to left or right sides of any App's workspace, realize that we are looking at it from the opposite angle so you would serve your students very well if you gestured left when referring to the right or vice versa. All the best. Keep it up.

      Or like Latin. You're eager to learn the vocabulary 'cause it's a new important main subject and everything but then more and more grammar and tables and stuff come in that you have to learn by heart in order to be able to understand everything so you lose motivation over time.
      (I'm only saying this cause I wanted to lol, I'm actually still trying to understand After Effects so I can do cool stuff with videos. The part about Latin is true though...)

I think people who are into video graphics are very impatient users. What they don't know is that your style of presenting complex information made simple for beginners while having a great personality is one of the main reasons why you're a successful TH-camr. You made your tutorials feel personal and intimate. Like a friend trying to explain something to you. It's motivating. Thank you for making great content.
