Happy Deaf Awareness Month!

Audio Description

The video opens on a blue background patterned with CSC logos. Large white text reads, “Deaf Awareness: Getting a Deaf Person’s Attention.”

A person wearing glasses and a black CSC polo shirt appears against a light-colored wall. They communicate using American Sign Language while looking toward the camera. Throughout the video, captions appear along the bottom of the screen.

The presenter demonstrates appropriate visual and physical ways to get a Deaf person’s attention. They use hand movements and gestures to show different methods, including getting someone’s attention from nearby or when the person is farther away. The presenter uses clear facial expressions and body movements while demonstrating each example.

The video is presented in a simple, educational style and focuses on respectful ways to get a Deaf person’s attention.
