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.

      Deaf chats, where?

      An AD Code registration certificate is mandatory for any exporter. This AD certificate links the exporter's transaction with any specific bank account. It makes it easy for exporters to do international payments and the customs process.

      Deaf chats, where?

      By Tiffany Haver · Posted

      I've noticed that there are 2 chats scheduled for every Friday, but I'm never able to get access, says invalid meeting ID; anyone have the same experience? I am an individual who is Hard of Hearing, wear a BAHA hearing aid, and am taking courses to become an ASL/ENG interpreter. I am very interested in joining any chats that are re-occurring, please inform me

      Learning ASL

      By eafe.uka · Posted

      Hey Nadeema Thank you for sharing your story I’m also Hard of Hearing and I really felt your words It’s not easy facing the unknown with your hearing but the strength you’re showing is real Learning ASL changed a lot for me It helped me feel seen and connected in ways I didn’t expect You’re not alone here We’re all learning together and you’ve already taken a big step just by showing up with an open heart If you ever need someone to learn with or talk to I’m around
