George edits
George learns video editing in public, from first After Effects projects to rough cuts, animation lessons, and the occasional crash.
Gorgoryos | 21 | video editor | UV dropout | i share my thoughts amd journey here
George uses this channel as a progress journal for video editing. The posts move from Premiere Pro and After Effects practice to design lessons, animation experiments, client-work realities, and practical tutorials on everything from map highlights to rough cuts.
George works across Premiere Pro and After Effects, builds practice projects from scratch, and turns lessons from the process into short tutorials. The workflow is hands-on: design the animation first, read the audio waveform for rough cuts, and keep going through crashes and lost momentum.
- The channel has 330 posts collected so far.

Premiere to After Effects
The channel began with George nine months into learning video editing, then followed the jump from Premiere Pro into After Effects. Early milestones included a first talking-head edit, a Pinterest-inspired animation made from scratch, and the first completed After Effects project.

Finish, Export, Repeat
George shared a 2D animation short, tutorials, project assets, and a final project of the year before turning to rough-cut technique and workflow. The late stretch includes waveform-based editing advice, exports, crashes, bugs, and the stubborn reality of starting again.
