Comedy Writing

A sense of humor is a very important trait to someone's character because it's a reflection of someone's purely good side and better your sense of humor the adept you will be at socialization. Whenever I'm making  a new friend I always try to find what makes them laugh, and if they laugh at the same things I do, we'll most likely be great friends and I'm guessing this method worked for everyone at least once. Your sense of humor is a brief summary of you. If your humor is really dark, you're bound to be pretty dark too (not me by a long-shot) BUT if you're humor is immature then you're bound to be immature! (ME) So try to have a good sense of humor on everything and find people who have the same humor as you!

There are many things that can make or break your humorous narrative. First, in order for your narrative to make sense your words must be augmented with applicable b-roll and the b-roll must be of the highest quality. Next, you have to make your voice seem as causal as possible, like you're speaking to normal person. Your voice can't be monotone or too fake or you could lose the attention of your audience really quick, defeating the "humorous" in your humorous narrative. You also have to sync up to your audiences definition of "funny". Just because you find it funny , that doesn't insure that another person will also find it funny, so try to go for a broad and widely understood topic.  Just a tip though, try adding physical humor to your b-roll because it's a widely understood topic! Who hasn't laughed at someone farting by accident?! Finally, try to have fun in making your monologue! The hilarity of your monologue will seem more genuine if you're having fun , therefore having a better reaction from your audience!

FYI though, my monologue is about the myriad types of annoying friends and I think my audience will find it kinda amusing. I mean who wouldn't? Who hasn't had at least one type of friend that had that one irritating trait? Plus I only chose the types of friends that would get hilarious b-roll with some slapstick humor and it'll generally be relatable to everybody, therefore having a good reaction. Plus, it's gonna be shown to middle-schoolers who encounter annoying  friends all the time, so it should also be nostalgic in some way and at the same time it'll have them thinking about their own friends too!
