Vent Script

Postby MagicTom » Jul 16th, '06, 16:38



Hi Guys,

I am currently starting to work on a new vent character of mine that i bought a while back and all he has ever done is sat next too my bed on a chair.

He's a wooden figure that blinks / moves eye balls etc

I have called him Ronny and decided that hes going to be one of those really annoying, cheeky and slightly depressive kids about to turn into a teenanger. You know the type....

I am currently working on a few comedy scripts.

What I'm looking for is jokes or everyday funny things that happen that i could possibly work into a comedy script.

I have been researching other comedy vents, and they talk about nonsense basically. A few pick on thier audience members as the main bit of thier script, and the rest just talk about silly things and a few sing comedy songs. (if you know any please let me know....)

Anyway take a look at this. - i'd love to do this - have my vent partner also doing vent with a puppet on his lap! haha

Ideas:

"you should right that idea down on a piece of paper and forget about it..."

"save yer breath for your blow-up doll"

"if i throw a stick will you leave?"

"euthanasia should be compulsory"

"i sincerely wish gravity gives up on you"

maybe you should make a big thing of the rolling eyes, as if everything he sees or witnesses is sooooooooo tiresome...

"theres two things about you that i hate - everything you do, and everything you say..."

please bear in mind ive not thought any of these out, i guess you can kinda tell.... :!:
