Hi David,
I have looked at the sketch you have drawn, and I must say it is very creative. Yet clean and minimalist theme you want to create.
From the project description, I understand that you want an animated header. The title should be in pixel-like. And a illustration of your face in the center. Would you like to elaborate on the animation stage? And can you provide a PNG of the header illustrations? I can build the animation with jQuery or CSS3. Since you are a director, I will focus on enhancing the video and photo post types, but the theme will support other post types as well. For the above-mentioned circumstances, I recommend that your theme would be a highres theme-type.
I am looking forward to hearing from you soon to have a comprehensive discussionwith you.
Regards,
Adam Azad
