Creator's Challenge
What is one challenge you can give my audience they could complete in 10 minutes with what they have in front of them?
13
examples: film a joke, do something out of your comfort zone, write a new verse of a song, do an old piece with a new POV, etc.
14
Take a recent situation that upset, baffeled, or frustrated you, and write it as a comedy. Keep the insighting incident real/grounded, but find any aspect that could be slightly humorous, and build on that.
