Storytelling/Childhood Memory Script: Nopon Edition

Date Completed: 5-28-17

Prompt: Video yourself telling a story in sign language

Thoughts: The video turned out pretty alright. It was so long, since I needed to fingerspell "deck" and "wild", that I needed to stitch different parts of the video together.

Also, the "Is I! Heropon Riki!" at the bottom is a reference to the Nopon from Xenoblade Chronicles, since the script is nearly exactly the same as their speech patterns. Why use many word when few word do trick?
