You are yielding null initially on the very first iteration. Therefore I guess this code won't work because of this test:

  useGenerator = () => {
    this.setState({ generatedObj: this.createVideoGenerator().next() }, () => {
      if(!this.state.generatedObj.value){ // <--- this.state.generatedObj.value will be null instead of the first yielded video React element
        this.props.handleChange("ENDED")
      }
    })
  }
