The final cut in HD
Tue 3rd Feb 2009 @ 9:12 PM
EDIT: If you haven't seen this on the islandreefjob page, can you check it out on there and perhaps even give me a star or five, as it might just help me out... cheers guys.
Okies... done... I might make some minor tweaks later, but for now I think I've finally got something presentable. YAY!
- 1:10 - Whitehaven Beach, I usually shoot out on Whitehaven once a year, unfortunately i couldn't make it back home this summer (trapped in the dark London Winter).
- 10:12 - Waxy O'Connars - Australia Day 2009.
- 12:14 - Piccadilly Line - Westbound - Thanks must go to Tom for sneezing on me!
- 14:16 - Graduation from UNSW - 2005 - I believe my brother took the photo with my camera that day, or perhaps it was Ryan, thanks go to both of them.
- 16:18 - Thanks to Kate for posing for the iamjameshill project.
- 18:20 - Google Maps (within fair use rights as defined by the google terms and conditions).
- 19:21 - Thanks to Jane for posing for the iamjameshill project. [edit: eeek sorry Jane, was a copy paste from the line above.... bad me]
- 22:23 - Fantasea Ferries This is an in the know pun for those who know the Whitsunday's. Fantasea Ferries is the defacto ferry company in and around the Islands, with the shute harbour terminal being the second busiest port in Australia (second to circular quay).
- 23:25 - Ragamuffin Maxi, another in the know pun demonstrating local knowledge, Ragamuffin is one of the coolest operators in the Whitsunday Islands, it's a fantastic day out, enjoyable by everyone. They take you out to Whitehaven and/or Blue Pearl Bay. Go on a windy day for the most excitement as the crew order you to grind the mainsail and hook your legs over the side.
- 26:28 - Montage of my travel photography.
- 28:31 - Thanks a heap to my awesome parents for having the foresight to record me as load up a ridiculous amount of equipment, ready for my expedition.
- 31:34 - Stonehenge : Cold & Boring, that's about all there is to say about that.
- 35:37 - Paradise Harbour - Antarctic Peninsular.
- 37:42 - Corporate Portraiture shoot for London based web marketing agency Rumble.
- 42:46 - SCUBA in London should not be attempted... If you want to dive or snorkel, go to the Great Barrier Reef! Massive thanks to Rob and Tom for hauling all my equipment around for me, and politely obeying my creative direction. [edit - for Julian] Shot along side Hammersmith Bridge
- 46:47 - Sun rising over Shute Reef. Photograph shot from Shute Haven.
- 48:51 - Hill Inlet/Whitehaven Beach on Whitsunday Island.
- 51:52 - Google Maps of Queensland.
- 53 - A post from www.jamesonhamo.com.
- 54 - Collage of Still photographs from my personal life and career.
- 55 - Grid of videos from various video blogs.
- 56:59 - Self Referential Link ;-)
- 60 - Mini Resume.

Super job James Hill!
Here's hoping you succeed in your mission! You would indeed have a captive audience based on the above plus an amazing tan.
