How to be Comedian?


Stand-up comedy


Stand-up Comedy is a different brand of comedy. There is usually a live audience and the comedian (stand-up comic) will talk to them directly. They use a microphone and stand up the entire performance, or at least for most of the show.

Be a Comedian


Here are some tips that you can do in order to get yourself on the road to being a professional stand-up comedian:

  • Make videos of your performances. You want to be able to go back and look at how it turned out. There may be some things that you didn’t like and may have to make some adjustments.
  • Were you moving too much? Were you talking too slow or too fast? Did you talk too loud? It may take you several viewings to determine how you can polish your performance.
  • Go to the clubs. If you are not ready for the comedy clubs yet, start at places that host open mic nights. However, in order to better your craft go to other comedy clubs to see how other stand-up comedians perform.
