The show I watched was House. I could tell that the characters worked in a hospital. There was a character I think was a doctor, but he did not have a doctors coat. Since I could not hear , I watched body language. I could tell that the characters were trying different things to find out what was wrong with the patient. I could also tell from the body language they at one point in time, they became frustrated because they all went into different directions.
When I watched the show with sound. I think I am hooked on the show. The character without the doctirs coat was a doctor. His name was House he was very obnoxious and seemed to be boss of the group of doctors. The other doctors like house but were very aware of his string of wierd cooments. I learned from the sound that House was a doctor who was addicted to pain medication. I could see that the sharacters conversations wer very important in solving the patients rear medical conditions.
I can how hearing and speaking can be very benefical for problem solving.
Hi Joy - Welcome to the world of House! I have been hooked on that as well as Greys Anatomy for awhile. I think that would be interesting to try and decipher what doctors are communicating to patients with out being able to hear. I might decipher it wrong and have some serious consequnces! :)
ReplyDeleteI also am an avid House watcher. I have never watched House without sound but I think I might have to try that out. I know that their facial expressions and body language is very animated on House. Great Post.
ReplyDeleteHi Joy,
ReplyDeleteI have never seen House before. I have however, heard many positive things about this show. I found this assignment very interseting and informative. There is so much to learn about body language and facial expressions. I am drawn to doctor shows. I just might have to tune into an episode of House...with the sound on.
Joy -- you are so right! Its hard to understand who the doctor or main character is without sound. I use to watch House and it was one of my faves - especially for the crazy stunts he pulls. I'm sure its interesting to watch their facial expressions and cues with no sound.
