SignWriting Workshop at Vienna /Austria has been a success ;-)

[Stefan Wöhrmann]

Hi Valerie, and list

 

I am just back from my workshop at Vienna – in Austria – 

 It has been a wonderful experience and the participants almost 16 Deaf
SL-instructors, teachers, students .... got some ideas on how to start. 

 

So I guess it would be a good idea to expand the SignPuddle for a section in
Austria – but they will write and ask personally ;-)) 

 

This morning I explained all the features of the SignPuddle – Program and
they showed great interest in it. 

 

When I opened my mailbox I found your Quicktime –instruction ! 

 

I am impressed and I love it!  The good point is that the viewer is able to
stop the video and to play it frame by frame if things go too fast! 

 

I am convinced that this kind of visual oriented teaching is a great support
for people who have trouble to find their way! 

 

Congrats, Congrats, Congrats -- 

 

Can you teach how to make such a video – do you need a webcam or is it a
special program that probably works on Windows XP as well?

L.I.F.E. -   - hi Tini 

 

All the best 

 

Stefan ;-)

SignWriting List

October 15, 2006

 

Dear SW Listers!

I just posted a new web page as an experiment:

 

SignText Video Instruction

How to Create SignWriting Literature with Video Screen Captures

http://www.signbank.org/signpuddle/help/SignText01.html

 

This video is in QuickTime. I wanted to capture the exact way I create a
sentence in SignText.

 

First I created a better quality video, but the high quality files were so
large, I had to post a lesser-quality version.

 

Can anyone see this video and does it help at all, to see how I create a
sentence using SignText?

 

I hope in time to improve the quality of the video without increasing the
size, and also including other video formats. If we can succeed, I could
post a series of little video clips showing how to do each action in
SignText.

 

Please write to tell me if you can see this video at all!

 

And also your opinions in general...would future video clips help in this
way?

 

Many thanks...

 

Look forward to hearing from you -

 

Val ;-)
