I have ADHD, anxiety, and depression too! It's hard to balance sometimes, and I think one thing we often do to ourselves is set our standards SO HIGH that it can make creativity not fun anymore. So I try to remember that if I make something a chore, my ADHD won't wanna do it, lol. We have to find other, softer, more fun ways to motivate ourselves and that works best!

@@makegoodcreativenetwork8953 ya I'm a perfectionist so it's hard to find motivation to do thing like art cuz I view it as a chore thinking of just drawing and painting without caring what the end product is

What I usually suggest to people dealing with perfectionism is this: make purposefully BAD art! Sit down and tell yourself "I'm going to make the worst drawing I've ever made." it's ton of fun and very freeing, especially because it shows you that you know what "bad" looks like.

@@makegoodcreativenetwork8953 ya definitely gonna try that I hope it helps

Haha they definitely get intense when I line them. Thank you so much! I'm glad the video was helpful.

Starting from a button is a great idea, I will have to mention that in the video! I'm actually working on a blog article right now about the differences between improv, sketch, and standup. I'll probably do more about it now that you mention so we can compare them more! That's a great idea, too, about releasing tension. I can think of a couple of sketches that do a great job with that. I'll definitely do more on the format and how to use rising tension effectively! Thank you so much for watching and I'm glad you enjoyed, given that you were MY first sketch teacher! ;)

They are one of my FAVORITE groups, so I'm glad you enjoyed it!

I am so glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching!!

I'm so glad it helped!! I'll be making more videos about sketches soon so keep an eye out for those.

Trying to throw some positivity out there! Thanks for watching.

why are you upset about it?

Thank you for watching the videos and supporting! I am married, but I hope the videos are helpful for you!!

@@makegoodcreativenetwork8953 areyyy😂.. Yeah I like your video.., 😀 Hope you a healthy and loving relationship 💯🖤. Let me know if any case I can help you😁

@@himanshubindusara2303 Yes, it's a very healthy and loving relationship, haha. Enjoy the videos and good luck on your comedy journey!

Whether you mean they look really nice or look really crazy, thank you either way, that's what I'm going for 😁

I love them. You should look directlt into the camera. Lets see them peepers!​@@makegoodcreativenetwork8953

I agree, me from my other channel.

Third channel here, I also agree.@@makegoodcreativenetwork8953

We are all so smart.

This is a great question! There are a few things I haven't been doing that can definitely help growth more, I just haven't had the time. For one, RUclips shorts are performing great right now. Most comedians I know post primarily short, funny reels on instagram, TikTok, and RUclips shorts. You can post the same one on each. In fact, on my personal channel (this one is more of an advice channel) I post my standup and it does pretty well, and it's not even high-quality audio or video. What will really help is jumping on top of trends... I am bad at that. You can see none of my videos use trendy music or hop on trending topics. If you follow trends and make your own spin on other's creations, like using an audio that's popular on TikTok, then you'll see more growth. I just don't like keeping up with trends, so for my own sanity I don't do that as much, but it does keep my numbers down!

I also recommend, if you're interested in getting onstage, taking an improv or standup class. It'll help you build your confidence before jumping in, and also build your network!

@@makegoodcreativenetwork8953 thank you for the insight and where are you posting your stand up at… I’d like to show some support

Thank you so much! I do a lot of different things on my other channel, but here's the standup playlist: ruclips.net/p/PL528-P6j7b-3y7-Md3ABCxn4u91Ihwm0x Thank you for watching and supporting!

Thank you so much for watching! I'm glad you enjoyed.

Thank you so much for watching!! I'm so glad you found it helpful. Have you watched my 5 books to make you funnier video? It's in my Comedians playlist and you will probably be very interested in those books to help your standup!

Half of my wardrobe is Buccee's lololol

Sexism. Thinking one gender can't do a thing just because of their gender is just plain sexism. It's something they should work on and get over.

Thank you so much for watching!! I'd suggest you start with one of the stand-up specific books. Comic Insights, The Art of Stand-up Comedy by Franklyn Ajaye, or Tao of Comedy by Bobbie Oliver. Those two books will help you find what's really funny about *you*, which can help you both with stand-up and being funny around your friends. I also recommend taking an improv class, if they're offered in your area! If not, you can take something online. Improv comedy will help you gain confidence and express your funny. Coupled with the books, you'll find your comedic voice in the most fun way possible. Let me know if you try the books and enjoy them! Thanks again for watching.

@@makegoodcreativenetwork8953Could U recommend a book teacqh me how to create and tell funny stories Like Jennifer Lawrence? Im reading comic insights this is a great book and in my view IT is too advanced for me cóż IT teach US how to perform. I send U my love

@@makegoodcreativenetwork8953 I need tools Like rule of 3 structures of comedy incongruency and how to USe IT please help me

Sorry it's taken me so long to reply, RUclips hides comments and makes it hard to respond sometimes. That's awesome that you're reading the book! If you want to start with structure, I recommend What Are You Laughing At? But if you are starting from zero, I would definitely recommend an improv class. Improv will show you how comedy works in the best most fun way!

@@makegoodcreativenetwork8953 thanx for recommedation

Thank you for watching! I hope the video helps!

All of them except for the first one, Writing Down the Bones, will help with being funnier when you speak! If being funnier in conversation is your goal, I recommend starting with What Are You Laughing At? If you're interested in stand-up at all, start with Comic Insights. Thanks for the question! Hope these help.

​@@makegoodcreativenetwork8953Thank you for explaining.

Thank you so much for watching! Hope you enjoy the books.@@ayanhalder6194

She's a great actress!

Thank you so much for watching! I'm glad you found it helpful.

Thank you for asking! I don't have much experience with the Pack Theater. I will say, UCB has more name recognition, but Pack seems to have a smaller community, so if you want to make more of an impact right away, that might be best. Also, if you're experienced, Pack might be better, because they're more focused on advanced comedians. I hope this helps, even with my limited exposure to Pack!

Thanks! :D@@makegoodcreativenetwork8953

They are a great example! That's totally what improv is like in many places in the US. I've been in shows that did exactly what they do... of course everything is different every time, but in terms of structure and also the magic that comes from it, definitely!

Do you have a favorite? Links to buy the books are provided in the description!

Oh my gosh, yay!! So glad you are finding the content helpful. I just released a new video about improv books, please check it out, there's definitely great stuff in there. I have a whole playlist of comedy content so I hope you enjoy!

Hi! Are you wondering how you can make comedy without filming it? You could try putting on live shows! There might be comedy groups in your area already trying this, maybe you could join them?

It's wonderful that you found humor helpful during a dark time, it's saved my life a couple of times, too. I would also recommend taking an improv comedy class! Improv is wonderful for helping you learn to play, open up to others, and think on your feet. Really life changing! Thank you for watching!!

never!!!

Thank you!! I appreciate it, yes I try to be fairly consistent although it is HARD sometimes, lol. If you want more comedy content, there's a playlist for comedians on my channel. Thank you for watching!!

Thank you!! I'm so glad you are enjoying/enjoyed it! I hope it's helpful!

Thank you for watching! So glad it's helpful. Absolutely, I've been doing improv comedy for 10+ years, but I still take classes because that's how you meet all the cool people!

Oh my gosh, yay!! Which three did you get?? So glad you found the video helpful!

@@makegoodcreativenetwork8953 What are you Laughing At, Comic Insights, and Improv

He is the best part of every video.

Oh my gosh, I'm SO HAPPY you found this helpful! This is also one of my favorite videos because it's only recently I leaned into some of my quirks and started to find what really works for me. It's so hard to allow ourselves to work WITH ourselves not against. I'm glad you enjoyed this!! We have a lot of other productivity content, but also this page is for writers specifically: www.makegoodcreativetips.com/learn-skills/writing Thanks for your kind comment!!

Yes! You can follow me on @makegoodnetwork . Thanks for asking! My comedy instagram is @rileyisyelling.

Becoming a god of anything sounds like too much responsibility, but thank you!

Thank you for watching the video! I hope it was very helpful :D

I'm so glad!! They're a big commitment so I hope this helped you pick the right one!

That's awesome! Good for you, being funny is a great way to build relationships and grow empathy. I suggest starting with What Are You Laughing At? It will tell you how jokes work, even outside the context of stand up or sketch comedy.

Yay writing with me in the present or future I'm not sure what it would be now!

Thank you for watching!! So glad you found it helpful!

I'm so glad it helped!! I love these books. Let me know what you think after you read them! Thank you for watching!

You've got a headstart, then!

Thank you! I hope you're learning a lot about comedy!

Thank you! I tried doing videos without them for a while but it's harder to do it blind lol.

Hi! I don't know Hindi (had to google translate this). I only know English, unfortunately. Does anyone reading this know any good comedy books in Hindi to share?

That's alright, it's a pretty big concept. If you're interested in learning more about it, I recommend this book: www.amazon.com/Upright-Citizens-Brigade-Comedy-Improvisation/dp/0989387801 It will explain it in greater detail and give you a lot of examples. Otherwise, using any of the other concepts in this video should work for now!

@@makegoodcreativenetwork8953 i will chk and reply to you

@@madhusudannayak4429 Awesome! Hope you enjoy the book.

Awesome! Have you read them before, or you just mean you want to read them now?
