Project 02 Final Night

I have concluded the editing of my videos as of a few hours ago and am now taking a break from finishing the web design to post an update.  I am happy with the final video product.  I think it effectively captures the perspective I was going for, while still maintaining the focus on the location, not the unicycling.  The video will be posted as one video for the sake of keeping it synched together, but it is actually two side-by-side videos.  Total combined running time is around 3 1/2 minutes.  I had it longer, but felt that there was no need to drag on.  I think for a location video the shorter the better.  We're posting this to a website, and there's only a small window of time that the casual web surfer will give an online video, especially a non-narrative piece about a static location.  

The website is coming along.  While not as involved as my last site, I  think the simplicity is a nice contrast with the action in the video.  This video also is much more self-explanatory than the three-perspective idea of my remix project, so it doesn't need the separate 'about' and 'credits' pages.  On another note, though, since I'm an exchange student, the website will not be linking to any Vic homepage of mine, since I don't have one.  I have linked it to my portfolio home page back at my school in the States.  This is the closest thing I have to a home page like Digital Media students here would have.
