    Based on the user comments below:

    Rename:
    05. Composition Part 2 (Of 4) -> 05. 05. Composition Part 1 (Of 4)
    - when you play the file it shows composition 1 of 3 so there was a change while filming

    10 I provided a link seperately above. Replace the 10. Farewell for Now

    Also Rename:
    20. Composition Part 3 (Of 4) Focal Length And Bokeh -> 20. Composition Part 2 (Of 4) Focal Length And Bokeh
    and
    22. 22. Composition Part 3 Juxtaposition -> 22. Composition Part 3 (Of 4) Juxtaposition if you want to precise.
    And yes they could not count. 4 is before 3.

    Good catch yes they changed something, or my file had a name issue:

    Rename:
    05. Composition Part 2 (Of 4) -> 05. 05. Composition Part 1 (Of 4)
    - when you play the file it shows composition 1 of 3 so there was a change while filming

    10 I provided a link seperately above. Replace the 10. Farewell for Now

    Also Rename:
    20. Composition Part 3 (Of 4) Focal Length And Bokeh -> 20. Composition Part 2 (Of 4) Focal Length And Bokeh
    and
    22. 22. Composition Part 3 Juxtaposition -> 22. Composition Part 3 (Of 4) Juxtaposition if you want to precise.
    And yes they could not count. 4 is before 3.
