Since I am an artist, I respect other artists and their choices.<BR/><BR/>However, Gashler Media did show me the video and asked if there were anything I wanted tweaked. Since there were three cameras, there were many choices for any one moment.<BR/><BR/>As far as I know, there is not a storytelling DVD that has closed captioning, audio commentary, and American Sign Language translation. I do love the filming of "The Call of Story" that was in partnership of PBS and Brigham Young University.<BR/><BR/>So instead of from storytelling DVDs, ideas for shots came from regular DVDs I see for movies. If actors can have special features on their films, why not storytellers?<BR/><BR/>As for the American Sign Language, Libby Tipton taught an hour of how storytellers can work better with interpreters during the Advanced Storytelling class at East Tennessee State University. Elizabeth Ellis allowed time in class to address such an important topic.<BR/><BR/>I wanted an interpreter at the premiere itself so that the storytelling could be more available to the deaf community, but I ran out of time to make it possible. <BR/><BR/>At least having the ASL translation is my part to open up storytelling to under-served groups. <BR/><BR/>Until we tell again,<BR/><BR/>Rachel HedmanProfessional Storyteller Rachel Hedmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13550520795951768254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1012349595773264560.post-22454921205982305202009-03-01T17:18:00.000-07:002009-03-01T17:18:00.000-07:00Rachel,this is an impressive amount of planning.

Did you actually storyboard the final movie, or just present this list of shots as a suggestion and leave it to Gashler to do the final edit?<BR/><BR/>Did you have a concert video from a specific performer in mind that you were working from as a reference, in visualizing the type of camera setup and shots you wanted?Timhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15432302620700328040noreply@blogger.com
