Are any of the people in this video actually deaf? Their signing is so slow and sloppy…And the interpreter was also a bad signer…and inappropriate/unethical…not his job to correct the teacher…

Beautiful...I'm crying.

Kids got rizz

If I'm deaf I can listen to music deaferently

IT WAS A VERY COOL SCENE SHOWIN SIGN LANO U AGE COULD IT BE BIT SLOWER IF ANY BODY ELSE COULD LEARN THIS SIGN LANGUAGE FROM THESE VIDEOS IT WOULD BE WOW!

I cried! Such a good movie! Thanks. I felt each person.

🦠🦠🩺

I PREFER BRITISH SIGN LANGUAGE

Beautiful wow

You both crack me up 😂

This is awesome though I love it. Great job!!

The unqualified interpreter annoys me. Common in the profession interpreters taking work they aren’t ready for.

Ya, I think you forgot your ABC's there for a second lol In her defense, I think she was only stuck on T because she was laughing too hard lol Edit: I don't know enough ASL let alone my alphabet in BSL but I knew enough to thoroughly enjoy the video XD

First I'd like to say that this short film was down right awesome sauce <3! Secondly, absolutely nothing about my rant below is meant to be aimed at Emily or any of the cast of the video. I've read the comments and a lot of people are saying the interpreter portrayed in the video was unprofessional, he was a bad interpreter, etc. I'm a hearing person and I respectfully disagree. Let's address one of the primary things that people seem to be missing here; he's a teacher, his job is to teach his students, that means all of them. Not most, not the ones that are convenient for him, and I certainly don't think he was right to disregard his one deaf student because he had "a lot" to cover in the class. A language barrier is NOT a valid excuse to exclude one or more of your students from your lessons. Schools all over America make great strides in placing students in ESL classes where applicable, so why aren't the deaf/HoH given the same opportunities ? We've gone through a lot of effort to accommodate the visually impaired/blind with textured sidewalk tiles, sounds at crosswalks, etc. We have lowered the seat height of our toilets for those in wheelchairs, we've made at least one bathroom stall much wider to accommodate wheelchair accessibility, we put in ramps instead of stairs in at least one of our entrances to public buildings, there are even laws that are strictly enforced to ensure these accessibility criteria are met and hefty fines/penalties for not implementing them. To think society has instilled in people that sacrifices must be made on the deaf community's part and even have them believe it's reasonable to compromise on their civil rights in order for them to get at least some of the things the rest of hearing world and people with other disabilities gets is NOT right, it's WRONG and if I'm being frank here, it's sickening ! Getting back on track...the deaf student has the right to have an interpreter there, the student has the right to get an education, hell kids not only have the right to an education, it's required of them. That interpreter had every right to be angry; he was trying to do his job and that teacher did not make things any easier and certainly made no effort to be accommodating. I don't care if you've got a lot to cover in your class, there is such a thing as print outs you know. The teacher getting in the way or even preventing the translator from doing his/her job, I see it as violating that student's right to an education; and violating the rights of a minor no less >.> How's that for food for thought ? :P

Deaf have hard life. Communicating is hurting for deaf. Hearing dont understand deaf is. Deaf need you to learn ASL that way deaf and hearing don't seperated. They should stay together at elementary hearing and deaf can grow up both able to communicate with hand signs for future. I wish education system need change for stop barrier communication not seperated.

Would’ve been better if they had native signers, but great video!

1:20 skyrim npc dialogue 3 6:05 it went from nightmare to white picket fence in 20s flat xD

Um, it doesn't look, from their signing ability, that some of the actors are Deaf? Why are you hiring hearing actors to play Deaf people?

She was mean not good to do she trick Deaf man - my sister Deaf so i do not think she was right all she should have done was introduced her self and be friends

The daily moth

i always ended up in self studying because i cant understand what prof saying it sounds like echo in a microphone. When using headphones its like the voice was coming from under.

i like the track at the end of the video. whats the link or name of it....Wonderful and insightful video...love to all the Deafs and though you guys face many challenges , i love the fact that most time you defeat and conquer them.

Love it 🤟🏽

God bless guysss

👋 Confused 🤷‍♀️ 😲

Hey sorry, if you read this can I please get the transcript of this short movie? It's an amazing movie and I need it for my research. If you don't mind you can send to me by mail Ineedoxygenforfree@gmail.com thank you

I'm just learning to sign...found this video & it brought tears to my eye. Beuatuful little story. Wish me luck...starting one on one lessons next week. I'm excited😝

Deaferent HAA hahahaha! that killed me for some reason.

Am sorry deaf have to put up with shoddy interpreters. The interpreter was not professional, out of role, arguing with the lecturer during class.If interpret for a lecture needs to be able to keep up, is dressed not appropriate ( should have a shirt to contrast with skin color for him a dark colored shirt ).

You should go watch my video on being hearing impaired

Wonderful

Thank goodness, I went to Deaf School of Mainstream!

That was an awful interpreter. What he did in the beginning was unprofessional and would not be tolerated in actuality. As an interpreter you are allowed to ask the instructor to repeat something or speak slower if at all possible but the way he got involved was extremely inappropriate.

Way to go Tyler and Emily!! 👍🏼😁

Im not deaf but i feel So much love por deaf people, i want to learn sign language

Yeah i was met some people have deaf.

I don't lied .. myself will visiting date Milo ventimiglia smile .

My relationship date mix Milo ventimiglia face ??

Yes .. my deaf meeting at Milo ventimiglia hearing good action fun ?? My story time 3 ?

I am half deaf It takes me longer to process words in my brain.When someone tells me something and there is background noise going on.I would like to learn how to read lips.

I liked the film but there was bits missing like Deaf culture, Deaf values and behaviors. I think James jumped ahead but wouldn't the fact they didn't share Deaf experiences... therefore she didn't lie.... i would rather it been more about his difficult time having access within school and public places vs Deaf community.

Deafness & profound hearing impairment can be a lonely thing to have . It leads to isolation which can lead to deep thinking . So as to try & make any communication count & not be wasted. I feel you have achieved this by your short film . So I believe there is some sort of weird balance made . I enjoyed the film , thank you .

I am deaf. I have been deaf since the age 5 and am now 67. there are things I noticed and want to bring up. Emily was wearing earphones pretending to be hearing listening to a radio in the beginning. This bring up a broad spectrum of the diversity of deafness from those who want to blend in the hearing community to those who isolate themselves from the hearing community (example in your video of the 2 male students criticizing and putting down Emily's hearing aids). Emily just had a ear operation and tried out her aids. Depending on the quality of her aid and fit to her particular deafness (range of hearing sounds high pitch medium and low pitch often vary) It is very understandable that she gets headaches from hearing undesireable unfiltered noise constantly pounding on her eardrums. And needed to remove it during those times. Aids are best when listening to music (not too loud though) like Emily's dad's piano playing. Some aids can be programed to tune out noise. Just like hearing people program themselves to not listen or tune out nagging, background noises, and focus on one sound. Example cat running when he hears the noise of a can opener thinking he is going to be fed, no matter how noisy it is....

Nice introduction to deaf culture. the female protagonist would be classified as a soda(when her brother who is deaf becomes an adult-Sibling Of Deaf Adult) The first interpreter portrayed was not a good one (a good interpreter can abbreviate the teachers oral talking, and is never involved like that one telling the teacher to slow down, It is the deaf students responsibility to speak up. Just pointing out some reactions I have with your nice, well done video.

And then it turns out to be a beats commercial “Listen to the vibrations of music now!”

She should not of built up his hopes then deceived him . Very heartless and cruel .
