Episode description
Today is National Tell a Joke Day. The perfect excuse to talk about funny voiceovers.
In this episode we look briefly at the 9 different types of humour - and why being aware of them is crucial when you're attracting an audience.
- Physical
- Self deprecating
- Surreal
- Improvisational
- Word-play or being witty
- Topical
- Observational
- Bodily
- Dark
And we also look at why it's less about finding a "funny" voice actor - and more about finding the right voice actor.
