I think for my music video I might like to make a video for people who are deaf which uses sign language. I think this would be a good project because, alothough there are music videos out there which use sign language most of them aren't very creative, and it would be nice to make a video that has a particular purpose.
INSPIRATION: LEE'S BSL MUSIC VIDEOS
Whilst looking on the internet for music videos which incoroporate sign language I found the page of LEES a deaf studies student at Bristol University. I really like his videos he basically takes popular songs and then signs along to them, whilst beeing as expressive as possible. I like Lee's videos as I think he tries really hard to make his videos as accessible as possible to people who have hearing imparements. Overall Lee has uploaded an impressive 361 videos across a wide variety of music genres.

About Me:
And I'm hearing, let me clarify that, but that's not to say that Deaf people can't sign songs, cuz they are amazing at signing songs themselves. Actually everyone can sign songs if they believe they can and they want to. It annoys me when people say "I'll never be as good as you", cuz everyone can do anything they want to if they put their minds to it. Cliche I know, but it's a precious cliche.
I think Lee's music videos are really inspirational and I would like to try and creat something similar.
