Produção de gibi em escrita de sinais

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to describe the process of comic book creation in sign writing, from a story told by a deaf author. We based authors Stumpf (2005) and Barreto and Barreto (2012) for the production of comic books in signwriting. After the adaptation, we presented the comic book proposal for 4 deaf participants, with knowledge about the writing of signs. All of them reported the initiative to create a comic book in sign writing. Image sequencing made it easier to read text in sign writing. Everyone was able to read and stressed the importance of more sign writing materials, especially at school. The comic book in sign writing is also a way to strengthen deaf culture through the circulation and recording of deaf stories in sign writing.
