Story of the Day 3/ 15/ 2013 #2

Today, Sarah's teacher came up to her and asked if she would be able to caption two short videos for him.
Sarah is in the second year of a film making and animation class, and she has learnt how to caption videos, however, it is a very time consuming process.
You see, in order for Sarah to caption the videos, someone is going to need to listen to them and transcribe what is on them.
That someone can't be Sarah.
That is because Sarah is Deaf.

Once someone has listened to the videos and transcribed them, Sarah will type up captions and insert the onto the video.
Then she will need to sit next to someone who can hear who will let her know if the captions come on and fade out at the right moments. This involves several steps of editing.
This also means that the person sitting next to her, listening to the videos, needs to be able to sign to tell her if the words come on too early or late, if there is a break in the spoken language, if.....

This means that either her interpreter or I would get this job.

And, although I have hearing aids, Sarah's interpreter hears worse than I do, so the entire process is , at best, frustrating and time consuming.

So, when her teacher asked her about doing it, this morning, Sarah was very noncommittal.

This turned out to be a very good thing, because during the last period of the day, Sarah's resource teacher came up to her to let her know that there will be an assembly, next Tuesday,and that there will be two videos shown that will hopefully be captioned by then.

Hopefully?
The school is not allowed to show Sarah videos that are not captioned.
After numerous mess-ups, her IEP ( educational plan) is written using rather strong language to that effect.

Sarah told me that, tomorrow, she will let her teacher know that she doesn't think that she should be captioning the videos that are supposed to be captioned for her.
I would add something to this, but what could I possibly add?
