Ever wanted to make fun of something? Well one way to do it is by speed roasting! Make a video in which you make fun of different things all at once! It could be a product or a movie or a series of products or movies. If you wanted to make fun of one thing, make a longer version of it and roast it in many ways. Or, roast a bunch of things in short separate ways.
Example: Quick roasts of a variety of fast food restaurants.

You’ve entered a simulation competition where you must survive from a random piece of media that focuses on survival. One person gets the movie “Castaway,” and the other gets the reality show “Naked and Afraid.” You were selected for the game “Minecraft.”
Talk about peer pressure, nonconformity. Express how you feel about the future and your career path.
Mashup two (or more!) songs that are similar to each other, by either the same or different artist(s). Do your best to show the similarities—edit parts of the songs next to each other. If it’s possible to do this without making it sound terrible, try to overlay the songs at parts to highlight how much they sound alike.
Create a poster or ad for an upcoming movie. Let the ad’s theme and movie contradict themselves. For instance, you can have your movie be about kids playing on a Summer day, but your ad shows a spooky side to the plot. A good “everything is not what it seems” kicker. Your movie could be an action packed movie called “Fight It”, but in your ad you can show everyone laughing as if it is a comedy. There are many ways you can mashup this assignment. Make it your own!
Record yourself getting ready! Whether it be how you get ready for your day, ready for bed, ready for an event, makeup look, etc. See if you can edit the video to speed through parts that may take a second (i.e. washing your face, brushing your teeth…) and create a voice over of the process. For inspiration, look up any “Get ready with me” video on YouTube! Have fun with it, maybe even make a (tasteful) parody version.
Record everything you ate that day. Add music! Make it ASMR! Make it cute!
