H.F. Posted June 25, 2022 Report Share Posted June 25, 2022 Hello! I'm sorry if this is not the right forum for this question. I wasn't sure where it would go best! I am an artist currently working on a comic. One of the characters is not deaf but rather is unable to speak, and he communicates via sign language. Because a comic is a visual but non-moving medium, I'm trying to figure out the best way to show this. My thoughts right now is to do a couple of panels of him signing main ideas and providing a text translation, since I know it would be impractical to show the entire sentence every time he speaks (and I also do not know sign language besides fingerspelling and a few key words). I know this is a rather niche question, but I thought it would be better to ask, as I am not part of a community that uses sign language to communicate, nor do I know anyone who does IRL.

AmberASL Posted June 26, 2022 Report Share Posted June 26, 2022 Just start now, and see how it changes over time, as you learn ASL, trying to be perfect now only slows you down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
