Go behind the scenes of Disney’s Songs in Sign Language with the ASL version of “We Don’t Talk About Bruno” from Encanto.
This feature explores how Deaf artists and animators collaborated to adapt the original animation — reshaping timing, acting, and expressions to fit American Sign Language (ASL) as a core storytelling tool.
Director Hyrum Osmond and the team break down the process of reworking performances, creating character-specific signing styles, and ensuring the song translates authentically into visual language.
📌 A unique look at how animation evolves when performance, rhythm, and storytelling are reinterpreted through ASL.
