Wow, good luck and have fun at the ASL NIGHT. I am very happy for you. Give us an update if you want to share with us after the meeting. Four days will fly fast before you meet them again. :hmm: :D
 
I meant ASL FILM NIGHT! :lol:

Ohhhh, yeah.. I am looking forward to this night, it's monday here, hurry up man!
 
Oh, I see that you are not meeting the Deaf family from USA in four days for the ASL FILM NIGHT. I don't remember seeing the ASL movie and that is a rarity for an ASL movie. The only films we go for social is mostly in open captioned or subtitles, but that was many years ago. I have not attended one for years now. :hmm:

You just confused yourself!

I'll explain, on the 16th of June, the deaf american family came to Australia about one week before that, and was told they want to meet deaf people in my hometown, and the father of the family was a friend of my interpreter's husband's friend (who is the brother) and I was invited as well so I went there and met them, had dinner with them. The kids told me that they are hosting the ASL FILM night on thursday, where they will show the film "Legend of the mountain man" and the family will be there too. :cool2:
 
It sounds like you had a great time there!

Have fun at the ASL film this Thursday night, JClarke!

Now I understand. Thank you for clearing that up for me. Yes, I am confused thinking you and the Deaf family will attend the ASL FILM night. And I am glad that they will be there to see the movie. I do hope you have a good time this coming thursday night. That is cool. :cool2:
 
The ASL Film night was last night and it was a great experience! The film I watched was 'The legend of the Mountain Man' it was an awesome film! The kids of the deaf family have enjoyed the time chatting with me last night. I was honoured to see them again and it was a huge pleasure :) They have enjoyed last night as well. Kudos to these people who made this film a total success and high popularity views with in the australian deaf community!

I so want a copy.

Sound great! Did some deaf viewers understand to watch it in using ASL?

The movie was captioned so it is easy for them but I watched it with the ASL at the same time. :)

I knew that the movie was captioned, but that is interesting to know that you have to see the other person doing the ASL for the movie. Only question is how can you be able to see the ASL in the dark for the movie? :hmm: I am glad that you all have wonderful time watching the movie. :cool2:

I watched it without subtitle last May. Almost deaf viewers didnt need to use caption on it and film was turned off it.
 
wow, good stuff! it would have definitely been an experience to behold.
