Sign Writing is a system of writing the movements and handshapes of Sign Language s. It was developed in 1974 by Valerie Sutton , a Dancer who had two years earlier developed Dance Writing . As Sutton was teaching DanceWriting to the Royal Danish Ballet , Lars Von Der Lieth , who was doing research on sign language at the University Of Copenhagen , thought it would be useful to use a similar notation for the recording of Sign Language s. Sutton based Sign Writing on Dance Writing, and finally expanded the system to the complete repertoire of MovementWriting . However, only SignWriting and DanceWriting have been widely used.
