Cartooning 101
Adding humor to your cartoons is an important element that can make or break your comic. A good sense of humor can make your cartoons more relatable, memorable, and enjoyable. There are a few techniques you can use to add humor to your cartoons:
Use irony. Irony is the use of words or situations that are opposite to what is expected. For example, you can create a cartoon where a fireman is afraid of fire or where a superhero has a fear of heights.
Use exaggeration. Exaggeration is the use of extreme or over-the-top visuals to make a point or create humor. For instance, you can make a character's nose larger than it should be or create a situation where a character is carrying a ridiculously large object.
Use puns. Puns are a play on words that use the double meanings of words to create humor. For example, you can create a cartoon where a character is literally crying a river or where a character is a walking dictionary.
Use satire. Satire is the use of humor to criticize or expose the weaknesses or foolishness of people, institutions, or society. For instance, you can create a cartoon where a politician is portrayed as a clown or where a social issue is exaggerated for humorous effect.
Remember, adding humor to your cartoons is an art form that takes practice and experimentation. Don't be afraid to try new things and take risks to develop your own style of humor.
