    I’m not a standup comedian, more of a dream than anything. I’ve actually been doing number 7 for over a year now and have a ton of joke premises and concept that I need to actually go through and try writing out.

      Thanks for commenting. Stand up is a fantastic dream to have. Currently there aren't many options for performing due to Covid however this will pass and you'll have plenty of opportunities and whenever you choose to do it is the right time for you. It took me a few months before I had the courage to give it a go back when I started, although it took a while I gained more material throughout that time and was even more hungry for it when I eventually took the dive. I'll continue to upload videos and do my best to get you off on the right foot.

    Right on Gary 'Get them laughing straight away' is just so important. I've watched many a show go down the pan because an audience didn't know if and when they were allowed to laugh. Honestly it happens, miss the moment and you can lose them for the whole set. It happens to the best of comics like young Gary here. If you're lucky there'll be 'laugher' or better still a giggler but don't count on it. It's your job to let them know that yeah, it's okay to laugh.

In my country, comedy has started to develop very rapidly and wonderfully, and I dream of being part of this movement. At the moment, my desire to learn how to do stand-up is so strong that it's hard for me to sit still (I barely watched the video to the end).

    Omg so glad I found you. I’ve just been presented as an old person the possibility of being a standup comedian, to make people laugh to make them happier to bring them. Joy is a way to make me happy and bring me joy, because I am finding myself at a fork in the road in my life, where the majority of my outlook is not happy, but the possibility of making people pee their pants, well that certainly will bring me joy and enhance the adult diaper industry which I do have stock in, but AnyWho I’m so glad I found you. You definitely have given me food for thought. Thank you so much.

    I am going to teach a stand-up comedy class soon. Really like the suggested basic structure to a 5 minute set. I was trying to think of an easy way to help put the material together. It is also in line with one thing I really want to do: help them to realize that, as soon as possible, the audience should somehow feel like they know you or your personality/worldview. I’d love to use it and also send them to check out your page.

    I've been asked to come up with a 30 minute set because of my tiktoks. I've never done it before but I don't want to turn down a foot in the door

    • @LetsTalkComedy
      @LetsTalkComedy  3 года назад +5

      Hey Edward. Thanks for commenting. First of a massive congrats on your success on Tiktoks.
      I'd strongly advise you to perform 5 minutes of comedy on your first attempt. To have a solid 30 minutes of pure stand up takes years, there's no simple way to put it. If you must talk for 30 minutes and don't want to turn the gig down I'd recommend turning it into a talk about your journey on the Tiktok platform and perhaps take questions from the audience.
      30 minutes for a first timer is just going to be a bad time for both yourself and the audience. The best and most successful comics working today take many months to create a 30 minute set. Make it easy on yourself and perform a short set they'll enjoy if they already know your style and you'll feel much better about yourself. There's also no shame in saying no to the gig if they demand a 30 minute set. There's plenty of other opportunities with the correct stage time that'll serve you much better.
      All the best with what you choose to do.

    I typically think that you need to write your things during the day on your phone and trying to think about the comedy of things that happens in the moments
    you do whatever you do during the day - and write it down on your phone and that way you're gonna remember lots of things during your past life
    and you'll be able to add it to your sketch on your phone

    I feel like being a comedian is natural. Your born with it. Your born without it. I think it's the getting on stage Infront of everyone thing that is what kills alot of funny people's dreams. Me, I'm always angry and depressed and one thing that helps me get thru the day is writing ideas down. Like being a first time dad..and how dealing with my own son is like being a hostage negotiator..having to say shit like "ok" yeah your right buddy" take it easy ..take it easy bud" what do you want to come down off that slide maybe I can see what I can do" something like that.

    • @LetsTalkComedy
      @LetsTalkComedy  Год назад +1

      All very true, and it's a nice idea regarding your material. However, tbh, I don't think it's something you're born with. I really think it's understanding perception. I feel that's the key. If you understand how you are perceived by others in a social situation, then you'll do very well as a comic, granted you put in the work. Now, it's possible that a sense of perception might be something your born with, or perhaps it grows with you through social situations. This I can't be sure of.

I kept writing my own way and practicing new tricks I could add to shows. We all have our own unique way of learning.

    Hey this was great, but wouldve loved to see you make a mock example of real time writing with the camera pointed at a notebook with a voice over of the 5 minute structure. The talking head style is good but it also helps me to learn by visually seeing what that might look like on paper as a visual learner

    This really helped me to write, still haven’t done stand up yet, extremely nervous but this did help me write and I’ve been blessed to write a few jokes that other new comedians used…
    Joke (woman)
    “ ladies don’t you hate when u go out with your girls just to have a few drinks and some fun, but you can’t enjoy yourself because guys keep coming up trying to talk and using the dumbest pick up lines you have ever heard… this one night this guy comes up and tells me that not only is he well endowed, but he says is the size of the titanic, so damn of course you would give him a try but when you get him home and he unzips it was less like the Titanic, and more like the little tug boat that couldn’t!! Or maybe the titanic after it sunk!!! So ladies be cautious out there, take the drink but leave the D

    • @LetsTalkComedy

      Great stuff. Indeed, it's a nerve racing game, but it's so worth it. Don't overthink the funny on your first few times. Just try to enjoy it and take in the experience.

    I started laughing at 30 seconds. The idea came into my head that dropping an iconic stand up comedian is equally as likely holding down a full time job for me. Im 28 and in my parents basement, and telling them this, i think it finally got through to them. Got fired today because of a fluke mistake. Basically, today revealed that the plans i may have expected arent really part of "the plan"

    • @LetsTalkComedy

    It took me a while just to write jokes, then now I finally feel I might have my 5-6 min set that I can finally practice and get to stage. It was hard cause I really didn't like any of my jokes and didn't have confidence, but now that the writing is out of the way I can finally commit to practicing so I can take to stage. FINALLY! lol any tips for memorizing?
