Comedy Writing

Why do you think sense of of humor is an important character trait?? Hmmm... From MY opinion a good sense of humor is one of the most important human qualities. It can release the stress you get from work or school,.. .We can use our joke to make ourselves feel better, to lighten our spirit. It can also increase your productivity when you doing some works. Unfortunately, some people do not have good sense of humor, and that is totally okay, we were born to be different. ;)

There are 5 tips I would like to give you in writing a humorous narrative. 1st: Look at things that you are surrounded with, it might apply to other people as well. 2nd: If there isn't anything around you that you find is funny, try to think of your own joke and make it longer, usually a joke is about 8 seconds, you can take that 8 seconds and add more interesting things into it, but remember it has to do about the topic you are talking about. 3rd: You can think of the funny/ hilarious moments you had with someone. 4th: You can make your humorous narrative a what they called ''low comedy'' type which includes physical mishaps, coincidence,.. that will cause the audience to laugh out loud, lol. 5th: Try to share it with your friends, and see if they find it funny.

My comedic monologue is about my really good friend, Kiara. I came up with an idea of doing it on clumsiness because I figured that is what most people would find it pretty amusing. I am not a clumsy person apparently so I could not do it about myself, so the first person that pop up in my mind was Kiara. She's not really clumsy, but she can act like she is pretty good and of course working with my good-friend would be fabulous!! Being funny is not my usual thing, having to write a humorous narrative is even more difficult! My comedic monologue is funny because it relates to everyday life, how you and your best-friend/good-friend will always have fun no matter what. Also it's because there's this scene where I freaked out, banged my head to the bed and kind of...''bottom burp'' so I think that part will get the audience to laugh:)

Motivational Poster

Hello my amazing readers! Currently we are doing this super cool project in my GT media class, it is called Motivational Poster!! The requirements that we had to do for our Motivational Poster were to have 4 total images: 3 symbolic images that represent who you are and 1 portrait up close of your face. Must have 2 separate text layers :Manifesto and Quotes, so the total of layers are 6!! For the design expectation, all text should be KERNED to fit across the entire page with NO holes or blank space. Triadic Color Scheme of 1 dominant and two accent colors. Blending options are definitely needed in order to make your text stand out, it includes drop shadow, outer glow and stroke, etc. Adjustment for the layers has to be right, or else everything will go off.

1st: I started with 2 text layers- Manifesto and Personal Quote. 2nd: I created another layer with 4 images (3 symbolic that symbolizes you and 1 portrait of my face!!). 3rd: I kerned the letters so they'll will fit my entire page, it was pretty hard. 4th: I used Triadic Color Scheme for my text color. 5th: I went to ''Blending Color Options" to make my texts stand out. 6th: I turned of my text layers to edit my symbolic images by using color balance, exposure,.. and I'm done!

My biggest challenge doing this project was to make the texts fit the entire page so there will not be overlapping and touching words. I had a lot of holes and blank space, but when I kern it, it overlaps the others. What I would improve is to make my texts shorter but meaningful.  I thought my work turned out to be pretty cool, especially when I applied the color balance ;).
