Personal Narrative Spotting
In the lab, being able to subtitle a movie was an interesting experience while, I had some difficulties in spotting. It was hard for me to set the starting and finishing time as they were so fast and subtitle did not displayed at the right time. However, I’m planning to practice it at home and improve my spotting skills.
On the other hand, in the class the availability of many new technologies such as cell phone apps or online subtitling for people with disability provided a new vision. The way how audio subtitling works was also very absorbing as they need to combine Audio subtitling with audio description in order to make the content accessible for visually impaired people.
At last, the final project was announced in the class with two option.

    Another aspect of deaf culture that the video opened my eyes to was how much prejudice the deaf community and people with disabilities have gone through. Before watching, I understood that being deaf was hard, but I had just assumed that there had always been laws protecting the rights of deaf people. Watching the film reminded me that people with disabilities have faced a lot of discrimination in the past and still do today. The video also reminded me how challenging a simple task like calling a friend can be for a deaf person, and it made me think how hard a deaf person's life can be if people don’t make think about them. Now, there is so much technology that can help deaf people communicate and navigate the world, but it must still be very frustrating when people make assumptions about deaf people or they are unable to do things because they cannot hear. The film “Through Deaf Eyes” allowed me to see more clearly what deaf culture and the deaf community is like by showing me real people’s stories and…

    Trough Deaf Eyes is a documentary outlining the history of the early deaf communities. The movie illustrates and touches the numerous achievements the deaf community has accomplished over the past years. It is startling to see and know the many obstacles that deaf citizens had to go through here in America to reach “acceptance”; this can almost be compared to years when African Americans were segregated. People these days might think that deaf citizens have it hard, but I’m pretty sure it is nothing compared to those years when it was punishable or looked down upon to use sign language to communicate with your family and friends. It is frustrating to know that deaf people were once forced to assimilate instead of just letting them sign. One of the movies speakers hints a good point when she shares that because she spent so much time learning how to assimilate words like “dog, cat, milk, and ext.” deaf people usually fell behind in their other topics. I can really relate to this and how frustrating it is because when I moved from Mexico to the U.S. I didn’t know any English at all. It was almost like being deaf because whenever I wanted to communicate to my teachers or fellow classmates most of my communication came from my hands since they all spoke mostly English and could not understand what I was saying or asking. Twice a week I was pulled out from my home classroom to go to another “special classroom” where another teacher would teach me English little by little along with another 5 other students. Thanks to that I also fell behind in my other school subjects in class; when it came down to grammar, reading, science, and cursive I sucked. Because of this small relation I found the movie to be really interesting.…

    Psychological motives involve biological, social, and personal motives. In my daily life, I encounter biological motives in every situation. These are the necessities of every human being which have to be satisfied.

    Yet another Thanksgiving, and I was stuck in my uncle’s basement watching the Redskins face off the Dallas Cowboys. Michael Jordan, Serena Williams, and various other famous athletes all grinned at me from their respective Wheaties boxes, seemingly mocking my pain. My uncle collected them and, for some reason, had decided the bright orange boxes would be a great decorative addition to the basement wall behind the television. I remember once, when I was younger, I was searching for a movie to watch and I accidentally brushed against a limited edition Michael Jordan box. The box began to teeter, and I immediately knew that I was doomed. All the boxes began to fall like dominos to the floor. My uncle, needless to say, was furious. Thus, it was seemingly fitting that the offended boxes, now realigned on the wall, would have the privilege to witness my torture by football.…

    Starting from a place I remembered as a teen, moving from a place that was warm to a place that had all four seasons; such as winter, spring, summer and fall. The First place that I grew up was surrounded by mountains. During the winter it was full of white snow, something that I was never used to seeing coming from California where all one would see was sandy beaches and the waves clasping one another. As I remember being so new to Park City, UT all I could see was the wonderful views of trees, mountains and people skiing or snowboarding. I have to say this was a fond memory because for the firs time I was actually able to experience the feeling of what winter was…
