Abstract:
I began by researching the Deaf community and wanting to create a music video for the Deaf. I later came up to make a promotional video for a performing arts troupe called Vibrations. I then wrote a grant for WIPB and was awarded $8,000 on the condition that I make a documentary to be premiered on PBS. Starting in September of 2009, I gathered a group of nearly 30 people and we made a completed documentary following the inspiring story of the children at the Indiana School for the Deaf and the work they put into their school year.
