I loved directing this particular PSA, because DeafHope cast the perfect people for this– Tracy & David Seto. They are not actors, but they understood the importance of sharing this message with the world. It was hard for me to film them in their own bed, because, you just simply have a natural understanding of allowing people to be private with their lives. But Tracy & David were perfectly fine with it. I enjoyed working with them thoroughly. This is an important message because — many people underestimate the importance of communication and physical respect with others in long-term relationships. It doesn’t matter how long you’ve been in any sort of relationship, that does not mean you are entitled to physical rights of another person. ————- Directed & Edited by

Had the opportunity to work with such an amazing and powerful deaf team out of DeafHope [http://www.deaf-hope.org] who has a serious dedication to changing the world for the deaf/ASL community. You can see the first release here, “What does Community Accountability look like?” This is a 2.5 minute PSA which covers the definition of Community Accountability. Hopefully people will gain from this, education-wise. Here’s the team that I’ve worked with.
