Hi Amit,

I am definitely interested in a tutorial on transcribing the ASL video into
SW, just like what you demonstrated.

Please put my name and email address on your list of interested ones!

Thanks,

AnnaGrace

*Additional information*:
The interface is my own. If there would be interest from people to manually
transcribe videos, and show the SignWriting on screen, I could make a
tutorial.
I attached the VTT captions file if anyone is interested in it.
