What makes a good rant?
A rant is usually done with wit and humor, at the same time expressing a position, a stance, or just something that you think is important. A good rant has the following components:
- Clear structure
- Intro – Establish the topic of the rant.
- Middle – Provides a challenging statement which makes the listener/viewer think….The “AHA!” moment.
- End – Wrap up with a statement that leaves the
listener/viewer with an understanding of the topic, i.e. a summary
with a catch. The catch should include content but could also be a
facial expression/movement.
- A topic that is current
- Topic should not be threatening, include profanity or malign an individual or organizations’ reputation.
- Utilizes facial expressions
- Good intonation
- Clear and concise message
Also
remember, a rant can be as individualistic as the person
ranting!
