Would this count as acrylic primed canvas?

It says "archival quality acrylic titanium gesso primed" as the base layer. Would this still need another layer of Gesso?

Yes, this an acrylic primed canvas, and yes it's recommended to apply another coat of gesso to this pre-primed surface. Check out the next video where Morgan demos how he applies gesso to a canvas panel, he explains why. Another layer of gesso will smooth out the surface and fill in more of the canvas texture which is ideal for portrait painting.

Pretty confused on how in the first lecture of the bean proko draws this exact image one way and then vise versa in the other.
