Creator Blog #6 - Jerry Seinfeld
🕑 Added 2022-08-11 14:00:06 +0000 UTCWhen it comes to storytelling, I like to draw inspiration from comics. Being consistently funny on demand is extremely hard to do. Out of all the emotions, I think laughter is the hardest to evoke from people. It’s easy to make someone sad or riled up, but making someone laugh on demand? Some skills are required.
The thing I like about Jerry Seinfeld is his precision. He scrutinizes every single word. If there’s anything you should watch today on YouTube, it’s his breakdown on how he wrote this single joke. It took him two years to perfect.

Haha, that's the pipe dream 🎤
Jerry Seinfeld is the tops in comedy humor. The fact that he never uses vulgarity as a crutch for laughs is remarkable and enlightening. Looking forward to your stand up debut, Thea.
