Comedy Writing

As you can probably tell by the title of this post that I am writing a joke and for the intro I need to explain why a sense of humor is a important character trait so here we go! One of the main reasons a sense of humor is an important character trait is it can make things more tolerable for yourself and others. Another reason is that it can relieve stress or tension. The fourth thing is that it can get you through your own hard times or other peoples hard time. Thus if you want to have a good day, have a good laugh.

Some of the things you can do to help yourself to wright a humorous joke are use facial expressions for different reactions from yourself can lead to different reactions from the audience. Another thing that will influence laughter are to make sure that your joke fits the audience's understanding such as the fact a joke about Justin Bieber or Taylor Swift wouldn't fit for a group of elderly persons. Also you may want to just simply revise it a few times, make sure the grammar is correct and possibly edit it slightly. One other little tip would be to test it with family and friends to see if they like it and if they do, try and tell other people about it. One last thing you can do (I'm not saying these are the only things to do just Mr. Sanderl wants us to give five tips) is to just try and stay cool getting stressed can cause the audience to get tense and then they tend not to laugh. So yeah those were five tips for wrighting a joke and making the audience laugh.

So for my comedic monologue I chose to write about a fish at a therapist. So here is my joke and just in case you don't get I am going to explain why the joke is funny at the end, HERE WE GO! So I looked in the newspaper and there is a fish at a therapist and the therapist says "So, how long have you felt like a fish out of water?" The fish dies but the therapist doesn't know and then therapist says " Look I know how you're feeling and its okay to be shy but I'm here to help, so take your time. Five minutes later after constant talking the therapist says "Just answer the question you silly fish!!!! ARGH!!! After that he hits the fish and goes to jail. So that was my joke hoped you  liked see you in the next post!!!!

Motivational Poster

My GT project we had to make a motivational poster, here where some of the requirements. I needed to have to text layers, one of my manifesto and another of my personal quotes they were not allowed to have any holes or spaces on the document. One other thing I needed were 4 image layers one of myself, and three symbolic images that represent me. I needed a triadic color scheme and visual balance for the text. One last thing I needed was to Kern my text to fit the document.

What I had to do in order to make this poster was first take my symbolic images were taken by yours truly, and open them with Photoshop. Then I moved them from their separate tabs and put them into one piece. After that I wrote my personal quotes and manifesto in my google docs for the spell check and copied and paced it into my Photoshop document to. The next thing I had to do was choose a color from a color making website with triadic color, I took the ID's of those colors and pasted it to my text. Also forgot to mention this after the text part but I had to kern the text and resize the imaging to fit.

The hardest part of making this poster was probably the kerning. I had to though, it wasn't fun I couldn't leave any holes and I had to try to make it fit on one page and make the perfect color scheme which it didn't wanna do so yeah. I think I can improve on this though by practicing, that's how everyone improve. Lucky for me I know of a website to let yourself kern! I will need to do more kerning throughout the school year so it probably is a good idea to practice kerning.
