As Emmett, Sean is described as “Deaf James Dean (IMDb).”
When he isn’t on set filming, Sean keeps busy with various projects including creating music videos in ASL, delivering motivational keynote speeches, performing live at Disney, and working on Twentieth Century-Fox’s animated movie, “Ice Age: Continental Drift.” When played on DVD, he provided an industry first on-camera ASL performance that displays in a picture-in-picture window in the movie. At Disney, he once performed an ASL version of Enrique Iglesias’ “Hero.” Sean’s deaf sign is a touch on the cheek with the fingers closed together.

This shows that you shouldn’t let your deafness get in the way of your dreams. Anything can get done with hard work. As long as you set your mind to it, anything is
