Paper Abstract:	To ensure smoothness of synthesized sign language sentence in video format, which is concatenated with sign language video clips, this paper proposes a kind of movement epenthesis approach based on prosody controlling. The proposed method decides number of transition frames according to sign’s velocity of pre-video clip and post -video clip, computes appropriate locations on the motion trajectories, synchronizes behavior of different models while the transition units are integrated. Experiment results show that the synthesized sign language sentence is smooth and natural as expected.
