Who won the tickets to 50 Shades The Spoofsical?
You see what I did there? I took “spoof” and put in front of “sical” and made a new word: spoofsical.
Keep it. It’s my little gift to you.
Your little gift to me was all of your entries to this week’s Sunday Giveaway for two tickets to see 50 Shades, which when strung together becomes a mini-dissertation on what you need to have a successful spoof.
Here were my big takeaways on a spoof’s requirements:
- Wildly successful source materials
- Exaggerated, over the top, performances or material
- Celebrate the source as well as poke fun of it
There you have it.
Your guide to a successful spoof.
So go out and spoof something!
And now, the winner of the tickets to 50 Shades is . . .
