Overall, it's not too bad. Here it comes- wait for it... BUT, there are some things I'd change. There is a huge empty spot on the front page, and I'd suggest taking the info on the About page, and fill that hole. The Photography page looks like some shot taken on set, not proffessional type photos. If this is the case, change the name to fit it better. And finally, you need to change that script font to something a little easier to read. But, like I said, it doesn't look too bad. It has a feel about it, that just needs to be refined some.
 
good feedback.

There is a huge empty spot on the front page....
I feel the same about that but I want the front page to be simple. I just need to figure out how to keep it simple but not feel so empty.

If this is the case, change the name to fit it better....
Exactly what I'm going to do. Thanks for that.

change that script font to something a little easier to read....
I put that there just to see if I'd like it as like an eye candy piece/filler but I'm not crazy about it. I plan on removing it.

Thanks for your thoughts Capt.
 
Since you only have a couple sentances on the about page, it should fill in the hole on the front page, without cluttering it up. You might also consider putting your contact info there as well. If you feel it makes the site feel empty after removing those two pages, add a page with your gear, and maybe a resume page.

Here's mine, if you want a peek-

Here's my .02, mostly design related stuff...

On your about page, you're missing the end quotes for the sentence there.

On your main page, the two different type treatments for "Itchy House Films" kind of conflict with each other. I would suggest using one or the other consistently (I like the one at the bottom better). This will help reinforce your brand.

The empty space on your home page can work, but it is vastly overpowered by your logo/banner. The bright red house stands in contract to the dark clouds/surroudings, which in turn stands in contract to the white negative space. This leads to the eye being slightly overwhelmed with the amount of contrast, and thus leaves us nothing to hone/focus in on. The use of three different fonts on the homepage just makes it that much harder. Maybe by darkening the hue of the house would help bring more visual unity to the logo/banner and then it will be in contrast with only the white space. Using only one type treatment for "Itchy House Films" will help this as well.

I like the overall look, nice and clean and smooth compared to some other video production sites I've seen.

A couple of points I completely overlooked.
