This brief called for the formulation of an original joke. The definition of a joke is something that is said or done in order to evoke laughter or amusement. This may seem straightforward however there are so many varying possibilities of structure and the reaction is so objective. Some types of jokes are designed to be obvious and overt such as slapstick, whereas some are subtle and can only be appreciated by a specific audience. I wanted to move away from the traditional format which generally consists of an amusing story with a punch line. My aim was to focus on creating an amusing situation from the obscure and unexplained. This video, which was created in collaboration with Samuel Parker, a fellow Camberwell student, aims to confuse the audience until the end section where a popular comedic format is used to explain the situation.
