Hello!You know, people often ask me for advice. No one is more surprised that this happens than I am. But I don't give advice because I don't think its right to give advice to people you don't know, even if they ask for it. Especially if it's about a potential career. So let me just keep it general and drop these "pearls" of "wisdom"..._________________________________________________ ___________________________
____________________________________________________________ ________________Want to get into stand-up? Find an open mic and do it. Study the comics you like. Figure out what it is about them you like and see how those principles apply to what you do. Do NOT do a watered-down version of their acts! That's called "having influences". It takes time to get good. Keep that in mind. And when you are good, you can be even better. Keep that in mind also.Are you writing sketches? Write a bunch of them. Round up some actors and find a place to perform them. You will learn by doing. If you do it for a while and don't notice any improvement/receive any positive reinforcement, stop writing as soon as you are aware that you are not good at it._________________________________________________________ ___________________
____________________________________________________________ ________________Have you made a video? Good! That is very good indeed! You are a do-it-yourselfer! The best way to be! You don't need my feedback. Honestly. Who am I? Just some bum who won't answer your MySpace message. Besides, I can't look at videos or read scripts because I wouldn't want to inadvertently absorb an idea of yours or have you think I stole it outright.Finally, if you're going to pursue a career in show business, you better love it more than anything in the world. It involves an enormous amount of unpleasantness and ultimately the payoff is getting to do it. If that is not enough for you, you shouldn't bother._____________________________________________________ _______________________
