Humor

Intro

Hi y’all! In the humor project, we were tasked with being funny! As in we have to give it our best to purposely make our audience laugh. For me that was woah there. A light hearted project- I don’t think so.

All the same, it was fun to see what each of us came up with this. For my personal humor project, I decided to use a combination of characterized drawings and some silly ideas to depict my friends. Look below to see what I came up with!

Reflection

Honestly, after getting rid of my anxiety about starting this project and actually being funny, this project was so much fun! I was struck by fear of being taken as rude since my humor is about sarcastic and deadpan sometimes– it is hard to tell if I’m being rude or not. (FYI I am not being rude.)

Overthinking it was the hard part. Recording a bit of a drag. Finishing? Absolutely worth it! Best of luck to my future, it doesn’t seem as bright as this sun for a career as a comedian.
