The first joke was a pretty straight forward remake of the joke, from the point of view of someone sitting in a room and a friend sitting across the room telling a joke. The other one is similar with a little addition tacked on. The two utilize line immediately, developing a line of sight between the performer on stage and the audience in the crowd. I really like the use of shape “Big Blonde Women” by using a very tall, very large blonde man, dressed as a woman, added to the hilarity of the video. This video also utilizies tension and release by building the tension as the ‘blonde’ yells at the standup comedian and continues berating the young man, building tension, then finally turns out the women was yelling at the inanimate puppet on the comedians knee, thus creating the release. The other video was very well done and the ‘big blonde’ women would have turned out much better if we used a different camera but still the videos were equally funny. The ‘blondes and puppets’ has a great moral at the end of the story. This video shows great contrast compared to the satirical/ sarcastic nature of the first joke. The puppet goes off on a rant talking about how people just have to get along and we have to accept our differences if we’re going to be in peace somehow. Both videos are great, given more time and better equipment they could have been much better however I understand that the intention of this course is not purely for video.
