What is ASL Gloss Script and why is it important?
ASL glossing is a way of writing ASL using English words to represent the structure and flow of the signs. It’s an essential tool for Deaf actors to internalize and perform roles authentically while staying true to ASL grammar and rhythm.
Are your workshops conducted in ASL?
Yes! All workshops are delivered in American Sign Language (ASL), often with English interpretation available for mixed-audience settings.
