Is it just me.....? * 3
    #26726613 - 06/07/20 01:24 PM (3 years, 8 months ago)

....or, did the people who do sign language during press conferences or whatever you want to call them get waaaay, waaay more animated?  I probably missed some sort of movement but man, they’re really swinging for the fences with their performances these days.

I think another chick got popped for faking the sign language again and just making it up as she went along..:smilingpuppy:

body language and facial expressions are interpreting the tone and stresses the speaker is putting on his spoken words. My sister is an interpreter and I get the impression that the difference between a mediocre interpreter and a really good one has a lot to do with their use of body and facial cues

How do you translate “anger in their voice” into something visual?

I'm not exactly sure why they do it, but I'm pretty sure that this is a bonafied technique that is regarded as best practice for clarity purposes. The official interpreter from Atlanta is a fucking star though. He does other events too and not just press conferences.

That makes sense.  They’re really getting after it I guess, I’ve never seen them that intense before.

Apparently TONS of sign language interpreters were fired after conferences because people that spoke sign langue likened it to gibberish and in one case they said she was so animated and it was gibberish so it looked like she was yelling jingle bells lol

Why is closed captioning not good enough any more?

One of my clients is an interpreter and we joke about this all the time. She told me how difficult of a job that truly is!

I thought there was a 15 second delay because of Janet Jackson's titty. They can't type that fast or what?

Youtube auto-generates subtitles damn fast too.
