Fun comunication: Analysis of public and Stand up Comedias

Cilj diplomskog rada bio je istražiti odnos stand up komičara i publike tijekom nastupa. U svrhu provjere istraživačkih pitanja korištena je metoda dubinskih intervjua. Istraživanje je obavljeno na namjernom uzorku petero hrvatskih profesionalnih stand up komičara i petero stalnih gledatelja njihovih nastupa. Istraživanje je pokazalo da su se domaći stand up komičari formom stand up komedije počeli profesionalno baviti početkom 2005. godine. Prve radionice te godine proizvele su i prvi val današnjih komičara, a potom su uslijedila još dva vala. S obzirom na profesionalizaciju, istraživanje je pokazalo da danas postoji i Zagrebačka škola stand up-a. Njezin centar danas se nalazi u zagrebačkom Studiju smijeha. Glavno je obilježje te škole da njezini komičari svaki mjesec pišu novi materijal za nastupe. Time povećavaju izglede da publika svaki mjesec s nestrpljenjem dolazi na nove nastupe te da ne dođe do zamora materijala. Uzrok je tome i da je Hrvatska mala zemlja s malim brojem stanovnika u odnosu na zapadne zemlje iz kojih dolaze uzori komičara. Zbog tog obilježja, domaći stand up komičari primorani su puno putovati po zemlji, ali i inozemstvu. Prvenstvo inozemnih nastupa imaju susjedne zemlje -Slovenija, Bosna i Hercegovina, Srbija i Makedonija, čiji stanovnici bez većih poteškoća mogu pratiti nastupe. Stand up komičari suočavaju se sa stereotipom da nisu smiješni, a najveći utjecaj u širenju pozitivnog mišljenja imaju članovi publike koji su odgledali smiješne nastupe. Članovi publike na nastupe dolaze isključivo da bi se nasmijali i oraspoložili. Više vole gledati nastupe uživo od onih snimljenih, a na njih uvijek odlaze u pratnji prijatelja ili članova obitelji. Gledatelji su priznali kako o nekim temama, o kojima su komičari pričali, počnu drugačije razmišljati te ih više primjećuju u svakodnevici. Većina ispitanika ne slaže se s tvrdnjom da se komičari mogu šaliti na račun svih tema. Kao razlog naveli su osobni doživljaj i povezali ga sa šalama koje su čuli tijekom nastupa. Prema mišljenju komičara, za promociju i prepoznavanje stand up-a u budućnosti bit će odgovorno njihovo pojavljivanje i nastupi u televizijskim programima.ABSTRACT The aim of the thesis was to investigate the relationship of stand-up comedians and audience during the performance. In order to check research questions, the method that was used are in-depth interviews. The sample was purposive and included five Croatian professional stand-up comedians and the five actual viewers of their performances. Research has shown that the domestic stand-up comedians began her professional job in early 2005. The first introduction that year produced the first wave of today's comedians, and then it followed two more waves. Due to the professionalization, research has shown that today we have Zagreb's School of stand up. Its center is located in the Studio smijeha in Zagreb. The main feature of this school is that its comedians every month must write the new material for their shows. This increases the chances that the audience would come every month to see new performances and to prevent fatigue. The reason for this is that Croatia is a small country with a small population, compared to the western countries and their comedians. Because of the characteristics of the country, the domestic stand-up comedians are forced to travel a lot around the country, but also abroad. Country neighbors like Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia and Macedonia have priority in their performances because their citizens can understand the show without major difficulties. Stand-up comedians are faced with the stereotype that they are not funny, but the greatest impact in spreading positive opinion are members of the audience who watched funny performances. Members of the audience at the performances are coming mostly to laugh and have fun. They like to watch more live shows instead of recorded one. They always go accompanied by friends or family members at the performances. Viewers admitted that on some issues, on which comedians talk, they start to think differently and notice problems in everyday life. The majority of respondents disagreed with the statement that comedians can joke about all topics. The reason for that lies in personal experience and connection with topics in jokes that were heard during the performance. In the opinion of the comedian, for the promotion and recognition of stand up in the future will be responsible their appearance, and their recorded performance on television programs
