Event
Interpreting Music: Just Face the Music & Sign!
This workshop is both for those who dread interpreting songs when they come up unexpectedly, and those who want to interpret music, but would like to learn some tricks of the trade. We will work on basic skills such as stage presence and what logistical elements to take into consideration, approaches to translation, and also talk about some of the different perspectives on interpreting music. This will be a hands-in-the-air workshop, but its okay to feel nervous, well be talking about that, too!
Jennifer Jacobs is a NERRDANot Even Remotely Related to a Deaf Adult. She has, however, been involved with the Deaf Community for thirty years, starting back in the days before captioned TV, before relay services (not VRS, but just voice operators reading the tty), and before team interpreters in classes. Shes interpreted for performers as varied as folkies Pete Seeger and Joan Baez to rockers The Grateful Dead, to Ellen DeGeneres singing Salt and Pepas Shoop. Jennifer is still waiting to interpret for Gnarls Barkley. Jennifer currently lives in Santa Rosa with her part-time husband and two full-time dogs.
