Break Form!  Sign Mime workshop uses non-conventional signs and everything is mimed.  Classifiers, gestured movement, and visual emotions/expressions are used to perform in sign mime.  Inspirations are from movies, cartoons, scripts, books, and your creativity.  The benefits of using sign mime are the ability to tell a story either through scripts or imagination that is wholly visual, ability to imitate expressions and emotions, and enrichment in descriptive skills.  Develop your storytelling skills in showing you how to use classifiers, gestures, and visual signs.  All will have a “hands on” learning experience in different areas of Sign Mime’s techniques which are:  Body Classifiers, Body Part Classifiers, Instrument Classifiers, Locative Classifiers, SASS, Point of Views, Abstract, and Split Screen. This training will be taught in American Sign Language.  No interpreter will be provided for this workshop.
