The Brownie Brothers

A Battle Between A Mother's Love and a Child's Yearning for Independence   Due to a mother’s dramatic loss of her son in Disneyland, the next child has no chance of being independent. Walter is a young boy who is under the constant watch of his mother Martha. No sweets unless it was his birthday, no playing outside, must be homeschooled. One day he wishes on a magic hot dog for an endless supply of his favorite food. The next morning he wakes up to just that; A rainstorm of brownies. He decides to break free from the quarantine he has experienced his whole life and it is now his mission to find a way out of the confinement of his house. This story was derived from an abstract creative class collaboration and was then transformed into a story that explains a mother’s love and a child’s yearning for independence.

Multimedia Project 24: One Day In The Life –Digital Magazine Publishing on the iPad 
Project 24: One Day in the Life is an interactive design experience based on the adventures of the Advanced Multimedia class. The student designers spent two days in the Fall of 2014 and one day in the Spring of 2015 chronicling 24 hours in the life of California Lutheran University, the city of Thousand Oaks and the City of Los Angeles. The challenge was to take photographs, shoot videos, record thoughts, feelings, insights and discoveries - find the extraordinary in the ordinary, discover soulful stories. This year the project has been brought together into a design driven, documentary style digital magazine viewable on the iPad tablet device. This creates a greater level of interactivity than can be found in traditional print media. The purpose is to show the direction that graphic design, magazine publishing and digital media is heading in the future and how this new medium can provide a deeper, more immersive experience.
