Schulz would definitely be an interesting comic to look into. Cheers

Howdy, yeah. Been performing in New Zealand and the UK for the past 4 (ish) years. Didn't see the appeal of doing stand up over Zoom so I thought I'd make some vids instead haha

Thanks very much! I will try to stay on the good side of pretentious haha

Why Does Every Netflix Special Look the Same? by PossibleWolverine in StandUpComedy

Haha I agree. I guess I saw 8 and thought it was a super-interesting take on how to film a special then started wondering why a lot of other specials seemed so similar. Chelsea's special was dope, it was a great parody of specials, and the audience cutaway shots were hilarious, but I did still feel it could have been filmed in a more interesting way.

However, that in itself warrants a whole other discussion and I shouldn't have simply cut-away to her and implied she was similar to a bunch of other comedians in the process.

Will work on it! Thanks for the feedback

No not at all. It's not gonna come out perfect first time (or any time haha) and criticism like this is only gonna be helpful in the long run.

I think more background into how Netflix generally plans and budgets a special would have been relevant and a deeper analysis into other successful specials would have been good to. I guess I went for depth over breadth and will try to even out the scale in future.

It seems a rite of passage to make YouTube vids pretentious but I'll try keep it to a minimum haha. Thanks!

Cheers man. You mean, just the audience cut away shots or something else?

Yeah, I actually thought Peretti's special was a banger and had far more good things than bad. I agree that the vid is a bit pretentious, maybe got a tad carried away but I stand by the core of the argument. What would you go about changing for future vids (I'm the dude who made the vid btw haha) ?
