how tf did I never think about your very first point. Truly thank you for this series!
Thank you. Best takeaway was write about what you're passionate about. The car assignment (which i actually did) really opened my eyes.
This helped me very much. I've struggled with two things 1) coming up with content 2) the fact that I thought the story WAS the joke. What I got from your presentation is that the story is just a vehicle/medium to tell the jokes. I just started writing stuff this way (taking just a topic and then writing about a story from my life that comes up as a result, then letting the writing go where it goes.) Currently I've written a first draft about the time my parents tried to have me kidnapped by working at a gas station on the interstate in the 1980s, at the height of milk carton celebrity.
Well, I'm please by the results.
Thank you for sharing, and I am glad I finally found it!!!
Great tips, thank you
I saw a black dog by you,that’s funny.
My take on the task - distilled it a bit.
"I think a car can reveal a lot about the person. What they value. Some value safety and the "accepted" safe choice.
Other people want something that shows status and and adventure.
A lot of these people have an everyday car - but have a secret mistress car that's fun and exciting.
When I had a gf I used to drive. Now I don't drive anymore. I just take
bus to where I'm going - don't got a girlfriend anymore."
I wanna say I've heard something along lines somewhere.
Coming back to this video - I saw I did the practice. Hmm the relation between cars and relationship is a bit shallow but I'm just
surprised I did it. I think it would require a lot of editing to make it funny.
Thank you Casey!!!
This is so amazing. Thank you for the help. I’ve already come up with a handful of fun ideas. I listened a few times in a row, and each time, I had to pause to start writing, because your video got my creative juices flowing. I’m going to have to share and watch more of your content. 👏🏼🤩
What an amazing comment. Thank you for sharing!!
Hey man, share something here! I found out that the only opinions that could ever matter to an inspiring comedian is the opinions of other joke writers. Friends and family and strangers will always just say if you are funny or unfunny. Comedy peers will give feed back and suggestions. Never accept any opinions that say your idea hasn't potential. Offer your ideas for consideration and not put right rejection
Have always been trying to come up with some jokes and try to laugh things off, amazing video. Thank you Casey.
thanks dude
If I get famous, I'll remember you Casey, thank you for helping me my friend
Dude, thanks for being such an awesome and direct coach! I needed this! The 10 minutes to write about cars & 10 mins. to write the story was a gift! Great stuff- keep it coming!😁
You got this!
did you write “obese-servations” on purpose? at 6:30
I went back to watch that. Not sure I caught what you are referring to.
Did a cat just “yes and” you while you were talking about improv?
Oh it’s raining and storming outside and you still have electricity in your city? In my country rainstorm and electricity are on a parallel line,politicians says God will fit it some day😅
how did our host end up saying the words '......don't just write jokes......' in a video with this title?.. Maybe if he started ny loosening up his face, fun would follow
