I have discovered, in the past couple of months, that I have focused on my comedy and I keep coming up with ideas that are, to put it bluntly, crappy. That is because I think it’s funny but I have no interest in it. They are just throw away lines.
The one thing that I have been taught about doing comedy is that you need to be interested in what you are talking about and have passion about it. If you don't care about what you are saying, why would the audience? But I do have interests that not everyone follows. People’s tastes on books, TV and film differs with each person, so I have to find a way of getting them interested in what I am saying. A common thread or emotion that the audience can relate to.
So, I have chosen to look at what I find interesting and to develop it into my comedy in some where shape or form. This is where the blog comes in...
For the next couple of weeks, I will be uploading topics that interest me, I will comment on the pros and cons of this topic and why I love/hate this topic. It allows me to get some focus on what I want to talk about, you get to see and comment on what I talk about and you get to add your two cents about my comedy. All comments are welcome (but I should state that all negative comments will make me cry).
To give you a taste on what I will be talking about, my next blog will be about one of my all-time favourite movies. I won't give the movie's title away but, to give you a clue, I will end this blog with a question...
If there is something strange in your neighbourhood, WHO YOU GONNA CALL?
