We also did a little work on double-takes and how they work and what it makes you do. We had to get into pairs and create a scene that involved a double take. Some of these were incredibly funny and contained a lot of humour. Such as, Nora bending down to pick up a folder, whilst I lent on a wall and did a double take when I saw her. This was very comedic, but allowed us to analyse them to realise that they can be broken down into:
Looking
Comprehending
Looking again
Confirming
We saw some other very funny examples, such as Jordan meeting Katie, the talking rabbit and doing a double take and Liyah meeting her long-lost neighbour in a shop down her road. This allowed us to really see how double takes have become instinctual to us and have allowed us to create comedy in (some) everyday situations.
