Hello André!
Yes…I understand the dilemma - how do we know who will be watching from the general public? Which languages will they need?

Of course, your written presentations and videos that we post on your web page can be whatever language you choose to produce… (by the way…to send me large files we can do it through DropBox…I will send you an invitation to drop your documents into a private folder for me later)

So we are just talking about the live presentation…do you want to present live online in French or English or Arabic? Which spoken language is best for you?

Once that is known, then the question is…would ASL interpreting be appropriate? Because that is the easiest for us to provide… but we could find a Quebec Sign Language interpreter for you if you feel you might have viewers whom you know in French Canada?

Your choices are as good as our guesses - so tell us what you feel would be best?

If you do not know of any followers from your area, then we can make the choice here for you - I suspect ASL will be our choice - Or maybe no sign language interpreting at all… not sure yet…we are just feeling our way...

Val ;-)

If you can recommend an interpreter to me privately, and give me a contact email for that person, I can contact them to ask if they can interpret your three presentations…Many thanks!

There is always a chance someone might just see it on YouTube later I guess, and later we could always attached interpretations to YouTube videos, but during the LIVE presentation on Google Hangouts, they have provided the world with a “Sign Language Interpreter App” that places a little bubble for the interpreter to the side of the presenter, and if the interpreter has their own computer, they can appear in that bubble and sign for you while you are speaking…I think that is pretty cool! They also provide a captioning tool for live captioning - wow - such opportunities ;-)
