Humor

Introduction

For the last project in English, all Freestyle senior students were assigned to create a humor project. Before starting this project, we learned about the different humor techniques and strategies used in order to express humor successfully. We analyzed two comedians of our choice, pitched our humor proposal, created a script, and produced our final project.

Humor Proposal

Below here is the script that was put together to explain what we did for our humor project on the day of our presentation!

Final Humor Project

Right here is the final project that I collaborated on with my friend Deilani to create this visual humor project.

We decided to create a movie poster where we act out a famous comedic scene in the reality TV show: Keeping Up With The Kardashians. In Adobe Photoshop, I used images of ourselves and images from the web to compose our final project. We also included our title, tagline, and dialogue. This whole movie poster shows three main comedic techniques: caricature, exaggeration, and blue humor. Enjoy!

Reflection

Even though my partner and I had a different idea for our humor project at first, I’m still glad I got to work with Deilani on this final project. I was able to use previous Photoshop composition skills we learned in Digital Media and used comedic strategies we learned in English class this last unit. I’m plenty satisfied with what we have both created and I hope you like it too!
