The Full Story

Before I finally share the final excerpt of our documentary, I would first like to mention the full story.

The Full Story
 This documentary follows two comedians, Chris Perez and Robert Solomon, as they try to uncover the art of comedy. Our reason for making this documentary is because we believed that stand-up comedy is sometimes looked over as a hobby and is not considered an art form. We wanted to showcase the importance of comedy, and truly demonstrate that it takes more than just a good joke to be a comedian. Our main focus is Robert Solomon because he is just starting out as a comedian, and Chris-already being a comedian- serves as the voice of reason. We also wanted to capture Robert live as he performed for his second time stand-up comedy.

The 5-min Excerpt
The 5-minute excerpt that we chose was the first 5 minutes of the documentary. In these first 5 minutes we have an introduction of the characters, and an introduction to out story. For our opening credits, we chose to make it funny, and visually express each comedians' personality. We paired our intro with some fun, quirky music that kept thatfun feel to the film. We chose not to do a voiceover narration because we wanted the artists to tell the story themselves.  This also kept the feel of the documentary light and fun.
