Here's a sneak preview of forum @ silentSHOUT Short Film Festival 2011.
Josephine at Forum: A Sneak Preview

Transcription:

Josephine (actress):
(voiced by Lucy Lim)

 “The other challenge that I felt was how to translate English sentences into Sign Language. Again like I said, we didn’t want it to be in verbatim and we have a deaf linguist, Koon Wei and she was there to help me to translate many of the sentences so that it makes sense in sign language, and then we taught Walter, a FOD (friend of deaf) guy  - the main actor, and then we had a couple of full rehearsals, we had discussion, and we tried different emotions we want to be using in the film; sad, anger…...There were several attempts, but we always be positive, we enjoyed working with Margaret. And asking me to cry was very difficult; how do I become angry, how do I really throw out my emotion, I just cannot. The tears just run out, so I wondered what should I do and then that time I was lucky because,  at that time when we were filming, somebody was smoking away the Aedes environment, then I have these tears in my eyes, I was so natural and I am so happy. And I knew the crew were laughing when it happened. That was a very good experience for us and after that it went well." 

Margaret (director):

 “Something to add here, actually it was a surprise shot. When we rolled the camera, before I rolled the camera, that's my first shoot, I told Josephine "don’t blink your eyes", so she opened her eyes wide and big! And that time the government department came at the area, had this Aedes spray, so there was smoke get in the house. Well it was supposed to 'cut'! But I realized there's tears coming out (from Josephine), so I said "roll  the camera, don't stop, roll! roll! roll! for few seconds, and we got the shot and used it for the film. And actually it was a surprise during the production. Thank you Josephine.”

*eyefinger is a story about a deaf woman who experiences post emotional after son's death. To view the film, click: eyefinger

Want to know what did Jessica Mak wish for the festival? Check out the clip :)

Transcript of Jessica's signing:


"Hi, my name is Jessica Mak (sign name: JC). I would like to thank silentSHOUT for inviting me to share with friends and the Deaf community about the upcoming Short Film Festival. The festival is to showcase the work of Malaysian Deaf filmmakers such as shooting a short film, getting actors to act, editing techniques and the creativity on telling stories, to show to the public. It doesn't matter what are the short films about. It is to show the Deaf person's creativity through short film and let the public watch it.


Is this a good event or not? I think it is a good event because when I was small, I never heard about Deaf films. And now, on 17th December 2011, it is going to be the fist Deaf Film Festival in Malaysia. I'm excited because it is the first time. Many Deaf people will go to the festival to watch those films.


I would like to encourage Deaf people who are interested to shoot film, doesn't matter the film is good or bad, attend the festival to share and learn from each other. It is the same for the Hearing people. If you are really interested to shoot films, it is important to continue it whether it is for hobby or wants to turn to become a profession.


After the Deaf & Hearing communities watched the films, they will understand about Deaf life. Regardless you are deaf or hearing, one can understand through film much more easier compared to reading books. This is because some deaf don't read well and some hearing don't like to read.

After watching the movies, people will share the movie with their family and friends. I hope this festival will be continued for next year and onwards. I do support and hope that whoever likes to write story and shoot film continue to do what he/she is doing and one day become success to show to the world that You Can Do It.

Thank you."
