For this particular project we were assigned to learn a song in PSE (Pigeon Signed English) and sign it both recorded and live for Exhibition Night. The song was meant as a way of learning new signs quickly, using proper facial grammar, and honing in our presentation skills all in one project.
The song I decided to sign was "Hero of War" by Rise Against. In it the artist raises an outcry against the needless "collateral damage" inflicted upon the civilians in war zones who are not part of the conflict. I chose this song because it addressed a social issue that I felt was important to bring to the public's attention. Learning the song and signing it in front of a crowd greatly boosted my self-confidence of signing in front of people as well as helping me become more fluent with my signing.
