<p>In 2009, I co-created &ldquo;From Orange to Orange&rdquo;, a webisode series that documented an inspirational road trip from Orange County California to Orange County Florida, as two friends and I searched for <strong>the new meaning of the American Dream.</strong></p>
<p>But we were not alone, &ldquo;From Orange to Orange&rdquo; was an <strong>interactive adventure</strong>, that utilized social media that allowed followers to connect with us and direct us along the way through the use of <strong>personal blogs, twitter, live video feeds and chats.</strong> This revealing webisode series delivers real drama, hilarity, and an extremely personal view into the life of three friends traveling the country and living the American Dream.</p>
<p>Shifting through over 50 hours of footage, I edited the series into 10-episodes that document our quest to find the American Dream and everything in between. Our adventure included learning about <strong>fanaticism</strong> from a Star Wars collector, discovering it's <strong>tough economic times</strong> at an Ostrich Farm in Arizona, experiencing <strong>discrimination</strong> when we cross-dressed at the Drag Racing Museum of America in Florida, and <strong>overcoming obstacles</strong> when we got in a highway collision on our first day on the road. But enough with the teasing, as you can watch "From Orange to Orange" right now.</p>
