Ever wondered what people are saying when there is no sound? I might be able to help. I am a forensic lipreader trusted by legal and law enforcement professionals. #ForensicLipreading #DigitalForensics

CCTV footage with clear lip patterns can turn abstract sentences into concrete statements. #CCTV #ForensicLipreading #Law

CCTV footage reconstructs the timeline of a crime. #CCTV #ForensicLipreading #Law

If a witness provides a statement that doesn’t match a crime scene, CCTV transcripts can challenge their testimony. #CCTV #ForensicLipreading #Law

CCTV footage is not without its limitations—poor image quality, system malfunctions and privacy concerns.

CCTV footage offers much to law enforcement and courts—for example, impartial scenes, events and supporting witness testimonies.

CCTV footage must be obtained lawfully so it can be admissible as evidence in court.

CCTV footage as evidence in court is subject to rules and regulations—hence the Data Protection Act 2018.

That moment when you forgot to shut the office door before that important Zoom meeting… #ZoomFail #Unprofessional

“Lipreading is like doing a crossword puzzle with half the clues missing…” (Quote unknown). #Lipreading #Accessibility #Quotes

The words ‘seventeen’ and ‘seventy’ have similar lip patterns. Words with similar lip patterns are called #homophenes #LipreadingAwarenessWeek #Communication

Deaf lipreaders can misunderstand shop assistants. In this picture a lady learns in her receipt that the handbag in the sale was actually £50.00 & not £15.00. Words such as ‘fifty’ & ‘fifteen’ have similar lip shapes. These are examples of #homophenes #LipreadingAwarenessWeek

French does have a few proverbs about lips, silence & speech that can be adapted beautifully for #LipreadingAwarenessWeek “Les yeux sont le miroir de l’âme” (the eyes are the mirror of the soul)…just as lipreading uses eyes to access words.

The French proverb, “lire les lèvres, c’est entendre avec les yeux…” translates as “…to read lips is to hear with the eyes…” I think this is a succinct representation of lipreader friendship. #LipreadingAwarenessWeek #Communication #Accessibility #Lipreading

A radical idea for #LipreadingAwarenessWeek ? #Communcation #Inclusion

“The most important things are not said but seen!” (Author unknown). Today is the start of Lipreading Awareness Week! #LipreadingAwarenessWeek #communication #accessibility

#Lipreading Myth Buster 4: Some worry they are too old to start lipreading, but age is no barrier. Many people with #hearingloss begin classes later in life & find that this skill not only helps their comprehension but also boosts their confidence, social life, & wellbeing.

#Lipreading Myth Buster 3: Lipreading doesn’t mean perfectly catching every word. It’s about reading certain lip shapes, facial expressions, & body language, then combining these clues with what you already know to fill in the blanks. Context is everything. #deaf #hearingloss
