Os clássicos da literatura infantil contados em Língua Brasileira de Sinais

Abstract

This conclusion paper aims to a comparative study from videos made by the National Institute of Education of the Deaf (INES), on the classics of children’s literature, in order to realize the sound and visual elements which compose the story and, this way, have deaf kids access to them in the Brazilian Sign Language (LIBRAS). Going from a qualitative perspective, we have selected and analyzed videos made by this institute from 2010 to 2016. We have also found that INES is concerned on telling stories to a childish public. On all this video analysis process, we have found that: a) their quality on the videos has been increased as the years went by, for they have been improved through most-suitable elements to children’s imagination, like cartoons; b) INES’s contents have been made even more deitailed on the illustrations; c) the characters are expressing themselves better; d) the scenarios have also been adapated and improved. Lastly, we emphasize that this videos production had prepared a way for other productions to be possible and, so, for the deaf ones to have access to these stories in the signal language, either the childish literature classics and many other stories avaiable in the world wide web, supporting parents and teachers on storytelling to deaf children.
