It's really wonderful to watch ASL (American Sign Language) interperters

in an Al show.



During the Yoda chant, the ones I've seen try to fingerspell at first, but

then lose pace and just try to convey there's a chant going on that's mostly gibberish. :crazy:



They usually can't keep a straight face, either.

Yeah, captioning isn't the most reliable source if you're trying to get the exact dialogue. At the very least it can point you in the right direction if something sounds mumbled.

That's why I like it. Though, I've seen the captioning on those judge shows and sometimes it's like "thelks twoiaal blwow" and you're "meh?".



It is a hoot watching the sign language people at the Al shows, especially during the Yoda Chant. I glanced at the one at the OC shows during the Yoda Chant.

Thanks for the response to my post, you guys:)

I guess what I was really saying was in the pentiums

video there were so many things going on

in that video( the women dancing, Al doing all

of these Puff Daddy-like movements) I wondered

if they had to do alot of retakes for all the different

camara views? I also wanted to know if, it was Al

who decided what lines of the song would go with

his and Drew Careys scenes(You say you've had

your desktop for over a week, throw that junk

away man it's an antique, is just one example)



Thanks.

Well, I remember from the commentary from WAY Live on IAATP video, there was a TV right near by to view the original's video and compare of what to do with it when they were making the video.
