Incredibly high quality content! Hard to believe this was all done for a Go lecture. Thank you for this contribution to the Go community!

Being an avid chess player Go has always fascinated me but I had never taken the time to understand the game mostly because it has always been portrayed as a deeply strategic and complicated game. It's rather impressive that in a few minutes you were able to help me understand the basic concept of the game; and while I understand there are much deeper nuances to this game I feel considerably less daunted by it now. Well done.

Beautifully done video! The best I've seen. Incredible animations, good angles of photography, you stick to the essentials and you're obviously very prepared and don't go "um" all the time or interject with irrelevant comments. Very professional. I'm very impressed!
