Mystery Saucers Press
Project Summary
I'd been having a running conversation with a collective In Austin, Texas, about a literary press they were preparing to launch. I wanted to be their web designer/developer so I created this website as a proof of concept.

While designing the eBook for a collection of short stories, I decided to design an icon for each story that best represented each piece. These are a few that I really liked.

Design Notes
Everyone has seen a jump cut even if they don't know what it is.
Imagine a sentence with --- edited out.
(See, that was a jump cut!) Above is my graphical interpretation for the logo.
Spanish Video Index
Project Summary
The idea was simple.
Video content was delivered in two formats: voice over and template. Voice overs were recorded by fluent speakers in a in their native dialects using increasingly complex responses. This video content is used in both classroom and language lab.
In the language lab, it's the students' turn to record their own voice-overs. They watch a video template while recording. These recordings become a part of the students' portfolio of work for the semester. An oral/aural diary they can reference later to hear their own progress. There are a myriad of reading and writing exercises that can accompany this multimedia work, such as transcribing their own recording, and correcting the mistakes.

Design Notes
Before production started, I had been fortunate enough to secure grant funding to hire graduate and undergraduate students to work with me in a small production studio I created in an abandoned librrary. This was one of the coolest projects I've ever been a part.
