LEARNING TO BE FUNNY PART 3


What I've Learned About Comedy So Far (from watching a bunch of comics online)

1.Comedians are acting. (portraying a character)

Goes into character at 1:20. I've seen sets of his where that's how he talks the whole time.








2. Cuss words aren't funny (in and of themselves)

3. Interesting yet plausible stories are funny








4.Bold statements followed by specific examples are funny

1:54

5. Self Aware Comedy is funny







6. Bringing back jokes is funny


Joke at 1:45. Brings is back at 2:15

7.Convince the audience it's a conversation not a performance


8. Props are funny

9. Riffing Is Funny

10.Voices are funny

1:23

11.Least funny to most funny

:58 Reasons for cell phone loss

12.I've never thought about that/ I've thought about that and never said it
