What's great about having an audience is they can let you know what they don't think is funny, and you can just cut that out and keep trying.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I guess my idea of a good audience is one that's quiet and listens, but also that's alive: they respond, they're getting the jokes, they're with me. And that' s been happening.
I'm a great audience myself. I tried to keep in the background while others were on, but sometimes I'd just get hysterical.
I'm a good audience in general, but it's hard to make me laugh.
I've experienced plenty of times when something I think is funny doesn't do very well. And there are times when something I don't think is funny makes the audience laugh so hard.
Before YouTube, I used to show videos at film festivals, and that was good and constructive. Watching things with an audience is a great way to gauge - it's pretty clear what's working in comedy when there's a joke and people laugh or don't laugh.
In comedy, though, it's good to get feedback from the audience about what they find funny.
The best way to make your audience laugh is to start laughing yourself.
Comedians sometimes forget that there's an audience. You gotta be conscious that you're performing for other human beings.
If I get a hard audience they are not going to get away until they laugh. Those seven laughs a minute - I've got to have them.
The audience changes every night. You're the same person. You have to speak your mind and do the stuff that you think is funny and makes you laugh.
