If you have the extraordinary talent of making people laugh, you may want to consider a career as a professional stand up comedian. However, being successful at it requires more than just sheer talent ? you need to be smart and witty and most of all you must have the guts to go before throngs of people.
If you are serious in making a career out of your talent, always have with you a pen and paper so you can jot down any witty joke that comes to your mind. At the end of the day, you can review what you've written down.
Of course, you can write anything you believe to be funny, but remember to still be yourself when delivering the lines onstage. The lines should come out naturally and shouldn't appear like you forced them out. It's important, too, to prepare a script or at least outline the stuff that you want to say; or else, you will look stupid in front of everybody.
Another must do before taking the stage is to know the type of audience you will be performing for. This way you'll be able to adjust your style and your antics accordingly. One thing that you must not do is acting like you are better than them; this only creates a negative impression.
Remember, your audience may already have an impression about you even before you have spoken your first words. Instead of thinking of this as a disadvantage on your part, think of it as an opportunity to take things under control. Start with confidence so your audience will know that you have the ball on your side.
Many professional comedians have fixed schedules on certain venues. If you have to perform several times a week in one given place, come out with new antics and new sets of jokes every time. You have to consider the possibility that you may be performing before the same group of people and they will certainly not want to hear the same jokes again and again. Explore your creativity and try out different styles.
If you are not taking charge of the situation, you will begin to lose your audience's confidence, and you certainly wouldn't want that; else you'd just have to consider getting a career change instead.
Pursuing a career as a comedian is not a joke. Practicing and learning how to deliver a joke with the right timing are very significant to a good comedian. You have to be prepared because it is going to be a long way for you to go and the pay sometimes is not as rewarding as the effort. Stay funny and know what makes your audience laugh; then, you will be fulfilling your goals soon.
