Leap Year $6.14 Leap Year is one of the most delightful, relatable romantic comedies to come along in a great while, and its appeal is due in equal measure to the talents of its star, Amy Adams, and the lush, romantic countryside of Ireland. The two together are enough to melt the hardest of hearts. Adams is smart, funny, approachable, gorgeous but real, and very witty and nuanced in her performance. Adams’s char… |
Jason John Whitehead NZ Comedy Festival Gala 2007(tv edit)
Forget testing your routine at a new comedy club –or, you know, your grandparents’ basement. What a new comic needs is one of the toughest venues in the world: college. College comedians are a prized commodity at bigger universities who have the budget to hire entertainment.
It may seem a stretch, but universities are looking for the next big thing. Most comics starting out may try to avoid universities like the plague, thinking they’re saving themselves for superstardom before they “step down” to pleasing a bunch of drunken college co-eds; however, the truth is some of the harshest and most ruthless critics are students. They’re on the brink of adulthood and want to flex their big people skills by giving anyone who crosses their path a hard time, especially those who are to entertain them. This isn’t in any way to deter college comedians from performing for them. This is only to give you a taste of what’s waiting for you as you begin your domination of the stage and your drive to win over the crowd.
Let’s cut to the chase. Universities are going to go with the most popular thing they can afford. Because not every school has the pull to book the top comedians, an up and coming college comedian is just the right price and the right amount of green for their budget. You’ll have to face the fact –the most you’ll be paid is between $2500 and $5000. However, any college event planning committee is going to expend a great deal of energy promoting you –after all, if they want their money’s worth; they’re going to need to reach as many people as possible. College radio, newspapers, and news shows reach a vast array of people in the community. Your name and face will be plastered everywhere; everyone will know you’re coming.
New comedians need as much exposure as they can possibly get. If one goes the college comedian route, they’ll be sure to gain a wider fan base, if not a cult status amongst college and university students alike. College comedy shows are also the perfect venue in which a new comic can promote herself. If you would like anyone to join a mailing list –by the way, if you don’t have a website, get one, quickly– you won’t be disappointed. There’s no publicity like free publicity.
If you’re deterred by the paycheque, remember, your success can’t be counted in gold pieces. College comedians attract a large audience. Everybody wants to laugh, lest we forget. Getting a crowd of over 1000 students is a huge boost to your notoriety as a performer.
Pitchfork Festival Adds Comedy Stage
In a recent Pitchfork interview , funny guy David Cross talked about the similarities between musicians and comedians: “There’s quite an overlap between musicians who have an affection towards comedy and comedians who fantasize about being in a band,” he said. “The two worlds have more similarities than they do differences.” With that in mind, we’re happy to announce the first ever Pitchfork …
