The Humor project is focused on, you guessed it, humor. Within this unit we dove deep into the breakdown of what humor is, what techniques are efficient at creating humor. And what kind, personally, makes you laugh. There are many different types of comedy tools one can use. For me personally, I find more satirical comedy the funniest. So for Chloe B and I, our humor project was to create a newspaper like The Onion<\/a><\/strong>. But instead of general news, we focused on Freestyle Academy itself. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of our inspirations for this project. Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Waterson<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

To begin this Humor Project, we needed to do some research. In class we read Vonnegut’s Slaughterhouse-5 or The Children’s Crusade<\/em><\/strong>. I personally loved the book, and actually am planning to get one of the quotes as a tattoo. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Everything was beautiful and nothing hurt”<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once we finished the book in class and analyzed its humor techniques, Chloe and I paired up and began our individual humor research. Chloe researched humor techniques from The Onion<\/a><\/strong>. While I focused on Bill Waterson’s daily comic strip, turned book, Calvin and Hobbes<\/em><\/strong>. This was our ending research and analysis:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
