Description
A scene is played; at any time the MC or host calls "zoom-out" - at that point, the scene continues, but is played with finger puppets (as if the audience is watching the scene from fart away, and all characters are finger-sized). This continues until the host calls "zoom-in", after which the scene continues in "normal" size. Alter between zoom-in and zoom-out ad libitum.
Longform and shortform are the yin and yan of improv: opposite, equal and complementary -- (found on www.YesAnd.com bulletin board)
