Working now. That's 1/3 times I've clicked the link and it's worked.

Ok!

The music needs to go, or atleast it needs to have a toggle. If you absolutely must have it, you'd be best to cache a looping sound clip - It keeps stuttering for me, and I cannot see any way of turning it off, besides closing it, which most art leads/directors will do. I have to stop what I'm watching, or pause my own music to listen to yours, and it stutters? *sadface*

You might as well get rid of your home page - It has nothing of redeemable interest on it. I'd get rid of it and have it open on your portfolio, with work showing.

Related to that last point is the slowness of the site - With the navigation sliding around and the images fading in, whilst all moving smoothly, it takes a relatively long time to get around your site! Time is something most people, who'd be looking to hire you, don't have :P

To clarify - It's best to try to save your readers/viewers time at every turn, so they spend less time getting around your website, and more time looking at your work Waste their time and they'll soon close your site and move on to the next thing.

The image in the BG of the body (aligned bottom-right) could be more seamlessly blended into the background colour. It cuts off, and therefore looks a bit hacked in and bodged.

Instead of having 8 categories of work, maybe group them together? Seems a bit superfluous that you've seperated them up, with most only having 3 or 4 bits of work behind them - Example: 3D Work - Design for Print - Web Design.

Your contact page has "Coming Soon!" as the title, but the email address is right there :P What else is coming soon? Is your address that long, that it needs several days to write up?

You're obviously free to heed or ignore my advice as you wish, I hope some of this helps you out. You're obviously very creative, in many areas, and I hope you tune and tweak your site to best represent that

Best of luck!
