I want to thank everyone for their input. I'm going to dive into ASLFilms library soon.
I recently watched the Taiwanese film "Hear me". It's a cute story for anyone who is interested in a light-hearted romantic teen movie.
I'm sorry. I won't use "hearing impaired" anymore. It's a hard habit to break as my grandpa always refers to himself as "hearing impaired". I understand it's not really appropriate. And yes, I actually am lazy. Thanks for mentioning it. Now everyone knows! :-P
We plan to make the film...
Also, just to clarify-
I'm not entirely in the dark here. I've talked to people. I've gone to Deaf Film Festivals, and I've seen a number of Deaf films and documentaries, I've got books... I'm just trying to learn all I can before we storyboard the script.
The story is already finished, and was edited by a writer who is fluent in ASL and has strong connections to the Deaf Community.
I'm really just interested in what kind of cinematography the deaf community appreciates.
I'm an aspiring filmmaker, currently working on my first serious short film. The movie is almost entirely in ASL. I need to make some serious decisions regarding the cinematography.
Are there are certain films or type of films that the Deaf Community particularly love?
Are there...
