    I started watching this video and thought, "If this looks so good and is only 12 minutes he's probably gonna rush it and make jump cuts and it's ultimately gonna be a bad video." Then one minute thirty seconds in you've literally created space without jump cutting or speeding up the video and i'm just in awe.

    You should make a long beginner series. I just watched a 9 part series for blender, and now I know how a lot of things work. I've watched countless tutorials of yours, and still sometimes I don't know why/or what I'm doing when I add an effect. It would be helpful, and a lot of people would view it (:

    Hey Josh, nice work!! I'm a motion designer at a TV station and I do a lot of simulation stuff. If you don't mind the request, could you do one episode (I'm hoping for a series) about human body motion graphics? Like blood flow, vessels, cells and body systems working. It would be great! Keep it up, your videos are amazing! AAA+++!

    Not easy for someone just starting out. Be specific at the start of the video or in your description below (with links to some intro tutorials) about what basic tools within the program that people need to be familiar with. For instance, speaking quickly and assuming someone knows what you're referring to in "right here while this is max opacity" (2:16) while flicking your mouse around makes no sense to someone still learning about how layers and keyframes work. Let you mouse linger for just a few seconds longer than what you think is reasonable, then add another second or two, to makes sure people are following along. I needed to put in several hours on very basic level tutorials to even think about attempting this a second time.
