SEASON 1 NOW STREAMING ON VSYN+
SignTasTic! is a way to excite hearing contestants to interact with Deaf performers, through familiar games that cross cultures. This show is a fun way to learn a new language, with the chance to earn a grand prize of $5,000.
While money will motivate contestants to learn the 50 required signs, their experience will inspire them to learn more about sign language, and to fall in love with Deaf culture.
Inclusivity is the paradigm shift that Deaf people have been waiting for in the entertainment industry. By seeing Deaf people on television - performing, hosting, interacting - the viewer will find that we have more things in common, than we have differences.
PLAY To WIN!
Two contestants compete in a variety of games, responding in English and American Sign Language. The contestant who demonstrates the most correct signs will advance to the final round, for a chance to win a grand prize of $5,000! The more signs they recall, the more money they will make!
LEARN THE SIGNS!
Deaf performers test the knowledge of hearing contestants through pop culture trivia, story-building gestures, and electric performances.
SignTasTic! benefits from both Deaf and hearing judges. The Deaf judge evaluates the production of the sign, considering aspects such as handshape, location, movement, and palm orientation. The hearing judge confirms the contestant identified the sign correctly, in English.
SignTasTic! motivates people to learn more about ASL and gives them confidence to use it in their daily lives and interactions.
