Sending Video Links | How To Be A Working Comic #30
You have a great promo video, but to get hired it has to be seen by talent bookers. The question sent in asked if it was acceptable to email your video link as an introduction and submission for work. As always, a lot depends on "who you know." However, there is usually a way to contact bookers, clubs and agents that will increase your chances of someone actually watching it. From the author of "How To Be A Working Comic".
Practicing Insult Comedy | How To Be A Working Comic #28
Do nice guys really finish last? When it comes to doing insult comedy, that’s usually the case. But throwing insults during open mics where the audience is mostly made up of fellow comedians could be met with “death glares,” rather than laughter. They may not appreciate verbal darts aimed in their direction from a stage where they also hope to work. If that’s the case, how can aspiring insult comedians work on their performances? From the author of "How To Be A Working Comic," "Comedy FAQs And Answers" and "How To Be A Working Corporate Comedian."

Are You The Character? | How To Be A Working Comic #26
A question came in about "being" a character on stage at a comedy club. When done right (think Andy Kaufman) the results can be big laughs from an audience. But there's a difference between "being" a character your entire time on stage and "doing" characters during your act. The former might involve having a completely different personality, accent, costumes and props. And if you're successful, who gets hired - you or the character?

Bombing On Stage | How To Be A Working Comic #22
Every working comic has bombed on stage - especially when starting out. The thought might scare off aspiring comedians, but it's part of the learning process. Hopefully the lesson learned is how to cut down the odds of bombing again, or how to prevent an onstage "free fall." That's just what a headlining comedian and successful comedy writer in Hollywood did by using what he learned - when starting out - to turn a potential bomb into a successful performance with a lot of laughs. From the author of "How To Be A Working Comic.”
A talent booker requested an audition video from an aspiring comedian. But with a lack of performance opportunities in his area, the comedian has only been working consistently through online (Zoom) shows. Would it be acceptable to submit a virtual video? If so, what are ways to look professional - and not like an amateur? From the author of "How To Be A Working Comic."
