If I'm in something funny, I like to try and find some kind of serious line in it that people can relate to.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I'm not good at telling a joke, but I can say a line in a certain way that makes people uncomfortable because they don't know whether to laugh or not, and I love that comedy.
People say funny things all the time during really serious moments in life.
My brand of comedy is taking a serious approach to silliness. Small moments of modern life and human behavior make me laugh. At least that's where everything starts, and then my other through line would be a dry absurdity that exponentially spirals out of reality.
I've always found it easier to be funny than to be serious.
I'm always in situations where you can't be funny, and yet I want to do it anyway.
I like situational comedy when people are being completely serious and yet you can find something extremely funny, not jokes.
Something about not waiting for the laugh of a laugh track allows you to take lines that otherwise might be seen as just direct jokes, and make them seem realistic.
With comedy, don't try to be funny. That's really helped me. Just say the lines as you would say them, interact with other characters, and try to make it as real as possible. It will come out funny.
If I'm in a serious play, I often think to myself, 'I could make that line funny.'
I love to do comedy, and I don't think of things as drama or comedy. I think that if it's a funny line, it's a funny line. If it's a funny moment, it's a funny moment.
