This was such a fun and spontaneous collab video with the amazinggggly talented Storm Smith! We were two of the three teachers for @deafwest ‘s weekend event for the National Deaf High School Theater Festival hosted at Utah Schools for the Deaf and Blind this recent weekend. In between breaks, we decided to create a spontaneous video! A special thanks to the third teacher with us (and awesome as well) @ameliaxhensley who filmed the both of us.

Video opens with title that reads “the Coffeeshop.” Renca is wearing a brown sweater and a cheetah printed headband. Storm is wearing a white sweater and her hair up in a ponytail. Renca is drinking coffee then Storm is seen talking. Renca looks away and gives a side eye. Storm continues to talk to Renca. Renca glances away and her emotions become escalated in a way. Storm increases her way of speaking by adding hand movement- it looks like storm is talking directly to Renca. Now Renca is becoming more annoyed and she responds back to Storm by asking if she has a problem with Renca. Storm nods her head. Renca takes off her earrings and say ok let’s go. Storm continues to talk then she turns around, air pods are seen. Storm is actually on the phone with someone else. Renca begins to stand up but realizes Storm is on the phone. She slowly position herself to sit back down and slowly drink her coffee, realizing she misunderstood Storm’s gestures towards her. Storm continues to talk on the phone w her AirPods and opens up her laptop.
End scene
