- The first video in this course is all about the DNA of comedy or joke structure. This is a formula developed by some of the world's leading experts on humor. I do some stand-up comedy and explain how I developed my setup and punchline, and how I incorporated other tools like callbacks and rhythmic expressions. .
- In the second video, I talk about strategies for creating a short, funny video clip, Call it a sketch or a meme or anything that involves moving pictures and can go viral on social media. Being able to create this is an incredibly lucrative skill. Just ask Mr. Beast. .
