In comedy, though, it's good to get feedback from the audience about what they find funny.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think comedy tells a lot; you can tell what people think by what they laugh at.
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.
I think one of the big things about comedy is the ability for the audience to identify.
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.
Comedy's so subjective, and if someone comes to watch, doesn't get it, doesn't find it funny, then fine.
Comedy is a very personal thing, and some people will find it funny, some people won't.
Comedy is the most palliative way to make a point. People are more willing to listen if they can laugh.
I think a lot comes from having the experience of doing stand-up comedy. It allows you to figure out the psychology of an audience; what things are funny and not.
Comedy is like horror - you have to shock something in the viewer's system to make them feel it.
When you do comedy, you get impervious to good and bad reviews.
