You don't have to go crazy and start re programming stuff. Just because it is on a blog platform doesn't man you have to update it everyday, or that you can't use it like a static site, with the ease of adding content like a blog when you want to. I have a few sites and landing pages that I built on word press .....just stripped the date out of the posts, closed , or removed the comments, and maybe even the author template and you have a static site. Take what you have and make it better, you don't have to tear everything apart. First and foremost, just look around at some templates or themes, that will get you going in the right direction, and a few ideas will start popping into your head once you see how nice looking it can be.
I will start looking at themes and also adding text. I might move the videos to another page so that the index page shows content.
