Today I just had a casual recommendation for a video! Someone wanted me to talk about how I structure parodies. For example, how transformative should your work be? Should you deviate entirely from the story of the source material, or should stick to the original work as well as you can? The answer, of course, depends on the nature of the material you're making a parody of and also the kind of thing of thing you want to say about the original work!
