ASL Music Video: Who Says by Selena Gomez, translated by Rosa Lee & Jasmine Casella. Check it out!

Paul Simon’s Dazzling Blue lyrics aren’t quite deaf-friendly but I decided to challenge myself and try translating it.  Here is my rought draft.  I hope you’ll enjoy this song as I do.

Versa Effect Synopsis:

From their childhood years to working at a Deaf school in Texas, Jackie and Seth have always love to…HATE each other! The fact that they are working closely in the same school did not help matters. For all their bad blood with each other, something bad had happened to them: their bodies have been switched! What follows is a series of laugh-a-minute hijinks as Jackie and Seth struggle to get back to their bodies. Because of that, they have no choice but to work together in order to save themselves. With time running out, Jackie and Seth must find a way to get back in their bodies before they get stuck in the opposite sex of bodies forever! Versa Effect is the first comedy film directed by the venerable Mark Wood

Greetings!

I have been busying getting ready for the Deaf Music Camp which will start on this upcoming Monday. Our staff and myself included are extremely excited as this is our first ever deaf camp that focuses entirely on deaf music. Below is the flyer of our final jam concert which will occur on July 29th, 2011 at the Madonna University. If you’re in the area and got time to spare, please do come and support us. Proceeds will go towards our next year camp. Spread the word!

Got a little treat for you all from Russell Harvard and I. Be sure to crank up your volume because this music video is sure to make you wanna dance!

DEAF MUSIC CAMP FOR ADULTS: REGISTRATION IS NOW OPEN

Deaf Music Camp (DMC) is now accepting deaf and hard of hearing adults from age 18 and older to our program. Adult session will be held at The Holley Family Village in Brooklyn, Michigan during the week of July 17-23, 2011. High school program will occur the following week.

“We’re thrilled that we’re be able to open up our program to deaf and hard of hearing adults. Our goal is to bring deaf and hard of hearing musicians together so that we can brainstorm and explore the concept behind “Deaf Music”. Hopefully, in the end, we’ll be able to develop a solid curriculum for deaf music programs abroad,” said DMC Director, Rosa Lee Timm.

DMC offers deaf and hard of hearing high school teens and adults an unique opportunity to immerse themselves in blend of visual and audio arts designed specifically for deaf artists. Our program consists of four main areas of focus that students will be exposed to, learn from, and build on. They are: Music & Sound, Multimedia Arts, Dance & Movement, and Song Translation.

The Holley Family Village, where DMC will be held, is owned and operated by The Holley Institute which offers educational and recreational programs for the Deaf, Deaf/Blind and hard of hearing since 1996. It is situated on 214-acres of quiet woodland in the Irish Hills of Michigan, overlooking beautiful Vineyard Lake.

“The Holley Institute is proud to be offering the first ever Deaf Music Camp at the Holley Family Village,” said Kathryn Kinville, Coordinator of the The Holley Institute. “We are delighted to team up with Rosa Lee Timm for this new and exciting endeavour.”

Registration for the camp is now open. To register, please visit our website: http://deafmusiccamp.com. Deadline is June 20th, 2011.

Here is the latest music video for you to enjoy!
