Setup / excuses

Technically, it's a bit lo-fi: just an off-the-shelf compact digital camera switched to video mode. And the video has been web-compressed. If it proves interesting I'd love to shoot some in a HD video format, and use a proper stereo microphone. But for now, see it as proof of concept.

Also, I'm a bit strapped for bandwidth at the moment so the video's a little over-compressed. If you know of anyone who will host and serve FLV video files then please let me know.

Thanks.

Wouldn't YouTube be the best place to host them? You can upload as whatever normal format you're shooting - avi, mov, mpg, whatever - and then embed directly from there.

Just a thought.

Yes, I considered using YouTube and also Google Video. The reason why I went for hosting them myself is that I want a clutter-free presentation – like a photograph, without video player controls, YouTube logos and so on.
