I think I have the newer version in the Puddle 1.5. The sign in the captions uses an S fist, and throws of the 'rhyme' so I substitued the sign (wiht the help of one of the students from my school, I might add) you see me sign.<br><br>cherie<br><br><div style="font-family: times new roman,new york,times,serif; font-size: 12pt;">----- Original Message ----<br>From: Valerie Sutton <signwriting@MAC.COM><br>To: sw-l@majordomo.valenciacc.edu<br>Sent: Tuesday, April 10, 2007 10:03:28 PM<br>Subject: Re: [sw-l] How do we take a video of ourselves signing?<br><br><div>Hello Stuart!<br>Thank you for this suggestion...While we are on this subject of
video <br>on YouTube, I have a confession to make...<br><br>Cherie, I hope this was ok with you...One of our Board Members, James <br>Short, wants to create videos with SignWriting captions on them, and <br>I gave him a video that Cherie Wren had given me, to experiment with <br>placing SignWriting captions on a video...the SignWriting is by <br>Cherie Wren as well...it is Little Miss Muffet<br><br>Here is the link to this experiment, located on the Harkle.com site, <br>which is run by James Short...it is in James' message below...<br><br>Here is James' message to me:<br><br>----------<br><br>Hi Valerie-<br><br>I put this together in about two minutes. The timing may be a little <br>off and I have to figure out why some captions are smaller than <br>others, but this only took me about two minutes!<br><br><a target="_blank"
