    Interpreting Assignment Prep #1

    Interpreting Assignment:
    You will be interpreting a panel discussion at Comic Con on Friday, September 25th at 3pm. The
    panel consists of various actors who play comic characters including Chris Evans (Captain
    America). The panel discussion is one hour in length and they will be discussing how to take a
    character from the script to the camera.

    Demands:
    Pre:
    Environmental: I expect that the room will be all dark except for the stage.
    Interpersonal: The actors on stage might try and interact with me.
    Intrapersonal: Wow! Im so close to Captain America!
    Paralinguistic: The speaker might not use the microphone properly and speak too quietly.
    During:
    Environmental: The room is very crowded, I have to use the stage.
    Interpersonal: The fans often scream and shout, are not quiet most of the time.
    Intrapersonal: The lights are so hot! Everyone is so loud!
    Paralinguistic: The fans speak quickly and stutter from nervousness when asking questions.
    Post:
    Environmental: Some of the Jargon I didnt hear before.
    Interpersonal: The Deaf people wanted autographs after wards and decided to go get them.
    Intrapersonal: It was so cool to see the cast and crew from Captain America and see how they
    make the movie. I should go more often!
    Paralinguistic: The Deaf person was unclear at times at what they were saying because of their
    excitement.

    Controls:
    Pre:
    Environmental: By contacting the lighting and sound people beforehand, I am allowing myself to
    hear everything that I need to interpret and the Deaf client to see me. However, by myself also
    being in the spotlight is taking away from the panel.
    Interpersonal: By just letting the actors speak and do what they want, I am allowing them to
    interact with whomever they want to.
    Intrapersonal: By keeping cool, I am allowing everyone to experience the panel normally. But he
    is still a really cool actor.
    Paralinguistic: Maybe just ask the moderator of the panel to ask everyone to speak up before they
    go on.

    During:
    Environmental: By still making sure that I have good lighting, I am allowing the Deaf client to
    see the interpretation. However, the spotlight might distract the audience from the panel.
    Interpersonal: By letting the atmosphere stay loud and excited, I am allowing everyone a good
    time. But I might miss some of the words being said.
    Intrapersonal: By maybe stripping off a top layer (as long as I am still professionally dressed
    underneath), I am allowing myself to focus more on the interpretation. But it might distract for a
    minute while I do it.
    Paralinguistic: By just making sure I listen closely and rely on help from my team, I am allowing
    myself to get all the information I need to faithfully interpret the message.
    Post:
    Environmental: By researching the jargon that I didnt know, I am bettering myself for future
    jobs. But I can never predict all the words that Ill encounter.
    Interpersonal: By going with the Deaf client, I am allowing the Deaf client to experience the
    things that everyone else experiences. But I might not be getting paid for waiting in line.
    Intrapersonal: By making sure that I have rest times and enjoy myself from time to time, I am
    allowing myself to have rest and recuperate from work.
    Paralinguistic: By just trying the best I can to read it and depending on my teams feed, I am
    allowing the Deaf client to get all the information, and shows the team Im willing to work with
    them. But we might both not be able to read it and might need to just ask for clarification.

    Preparation:
    Preparing for Logistics:
    Schedule: I need to make sure that I have nothing else planned inhibiting me from getting to the
    panel on time or making me rush out afterwards. I would probably plan to leave an hour early,
    just to make sure that I had enough time with traffic, parking, getting through the crowd to the
    panel, and getting set up to interpret.
    Drive Time/Route: From NSL to The Salt Palace, SLC (100 West Temple, Salt Lake City, UT
    84101). I would take Redwood Rd. to Beck St. to State St., Turn right onto 100 So. And park in
    The Salt Palaces parking garage.
    Traffic at the Time of Day: Driving from my house to at least the Capital should be a breeze, but
    it might get a little worse as I get into downtown, the parking will be the worst.
    Parking: Parking will be the hardest to do, I will arrive extra early to make sure that I have time
    to park and walk to the building.
    Extra: I will call ahead to make sure which room/area it is in, and get a persons number and
    make sure it is set in stone the day of the event.
    Preparing for Topic:
    Register: I would think that the register would be more casual, but the technical jargon would
    make it more formal.
    Sub-Topic: All of the technical jargon used about taking the movie from script to camera would
    need to be researched. Books, movie extras, YouTube videos, Interviews, and magazines would
    be helpful in this search.

    Vocabulary: the script, ideas, development finance, script development, packaging, financing,
    pre-production, the shoot, post production, sales, marketing, expedition, etc.
    Mode of Communication: Some of the beginning would be mostly just talking and playful banter
    from the actor to others, then the audience would ask questions and the actor/ production team
    will answer.
    Preparing for Customer Service:
    Teaming: talk with the team beforehand and see if they have any experience with panels. Make
    sure we discuss arrival time, jargon, the setup, any demands that might pop up, and if there is any
    parts that we would prefer to or not to interpret.
    Company/Organization Info: I would research the movies that any of the actors or production
    crew have worked or any future projects. Look at any special things that the Salt Lake Comic
    Con likes to do during panels. Maybe look at past panels from SLCC.
    Consumers: Have idle chat with the Deaf client beforehand so that I can better match their style
    of language, and ask if they might ask questions during the panel.
    Resources of Useful Info:
    Watching YouTube videos, past interviews, etc. on past panels. Ask other people about panels
    that they have attended and see if there is anything out of the ordinary. Ask people that run the
    Con and see if they will give me any information on the panel.
