14 Amusing ridiculous for Flat Story


                                                  14 ridiculous for Flat Story
l  Both for classical and neoclassical theory, the comic is characterized in terms of “the ludicrous” and “the ridiculous”: Comedy is an imitation of baser men. These are characterized not by every kind of vice but specifically by the ridiculous, which is a subdivision of the category of deformity. What we mean by ‘the ridiculous’ is some error or ugliness that is painless and has no harmful effects.(Aristotle)
l  The site of the ludicrous and the ridiculous may either be mind (in the form of ignorance, imprudence, credulity, the making of an error or mistake) or the body (in the form of ugliness, deformity, ill-fitting or inappropriate garments, and so on).
l  People are ludicrous or ridiculous in appearance as well as in speech or action: because of bodily or facial expression, or gesture, or motion, or physical activity, or dress.
So I try to make the character of Susan to produce funny. She is a so ludicrous and ridiculous girl from her mind to her body. Her ideas are always wrong, like free eating food from other people; and she like showing her rich. So selfish and ridiculous. From her body we can see, her motions are always exaggerated, the voice too heavy when she is walking, and laugh loudly….  Meanwhile, her face and garments are both so ugliness. So these ideas are so important for produce funny for this film.
