A short look on the website set up

Take a short look on the website set-up (animation pixalation). Please, disconsider the breaks between the videos and a few more details, which I'm still working on.

At the moment, I'm working on:

- How these videos work better in the Internet (video extension x quality x file size);
- The sound for this set up (I'm trying to get sounds made out of paper);
- The black background will be a photo of a black paper.
- I'm working on the sentences that will appear on the notebook area, and the videos of the drawing map.
