I need more interviews of Key just explaining stuff.
Here's an hour ua-cam.com/video/wy5N9CljB2Y/v-deo.html
IKR
His brain needs a big multimedia deal!!!
Dudes brain cycles are running at top speed. Insightful as fuck!
ADHD
I can sorta relate to this when my friend almost dicked me over during my improv audition for a play but my other friend saved it by a splinter
ADLSDHD
He is a scared, scarred child terrified you'll be bored and turn away. Your back is his nightmare.
Keegan Michael Key has apparently found the formula for Robin Williams level of energy. This man is a million miles a minute and he's there every beat.
That... was the most interesting talk I've ever heard.
His energy is just so contagious.
The Heart Of A Blackbird True
That is an artistic level of passive aggression.
Honestly can Keegan Michael-Key write a book on improv/comedy or give some sort of lecture series because he is so fucking well articulated and insightful about this
Keegan doesn't turn this off at all. He's like this in the makeup chair before a show.
-Himself.
BOOM! Agent Michael Scarn FBI, nobody move.
*Everybody dies* -End of Scene-
I’ve got a gun!
Need a Michael Scarn/Bert Macklin crossover event
seriously. Keegan-Michael Keys advice and insight on improv is genius. such an easy straight forward way to breaking down the dynamics.
Listening to these bits almost makes me want to get into improv..
Improv can be difficult at first. But it is really fun to find what types of situations you get into.
Samee
until you're really, really good it's painful for the audience and performer. same with stand-up, but I think improv bombing is harder to watch.
I did it in college. It’s hard AF and it never got easier - at least for me. I was panicked the entire time and could barely breathe. My performance got better but the sheer panic never waned.
I have huge respect for improv actors. It's a trait I always wished I'd mastered.
Keegan-Michael Key is born to be an actor it is in his blood
Comedy doesn’t get nearly enough respect for its level of intellect. Whether that’s improv or standup or comedic actors or writers. I’m not gonna just tell you a story with all the depth and emotion and continuity of a drama, I’m gonna make you laugh through it too. Pretty incredible stuff when you listen to the best in the world explain it like this.
I had NO idea he was so eloquent
He just introduced me to the world of improv in 2 videos
He'd be an amazing teacher.
we need an indepth analysis from Keegan , not kidding I'll pay to watch it
Keegan-Michael Key is a wonderful comedian and seems to be a lovely person. He's very clear at explaining his improv process. I just want to chime in here to mention that there are other forms of improvisation beyond comedy improv in which different techniques are used to produce improvisational theatre: dramatic , narrative and physical theatre.
I feel like I just stumbled upon some invaluable improv lessons
Master Class in improve. Nice. reeeeal nice.
Its not really though, its just how he does improv, this method could and will most likely be very bad for many actors.
*Noice.
@@Wwisp idiot
"What the f*&#! Why are you a dinosaur?!?!" Yaassss!
Not that I needed this to sell me on the movie, but now I'm even more excited to see Don't think twice. Keegan is truly a brilliant actor and a comedy mastermind.
he was probably the best choice for the genie in the live action aladin
Oh man Key would have killed that role
Improv means you pay attention to more than what is right in front of you.
i would be the dinosaur guy in that situation
Yoo same 😂
Wow. Really interesting and very well put. I'm glad to have watched thay
its like a duel in music. principles are the same. its beautiful.
Finally, someone explaining how improv works.
he super high energy! love this comedic actor! he's so cool and highly skilled at his craft.
I want more interviews like these with Keegan...🙏🏽
Auditioning for the groundlings on friday. Speak through me mr key!!!
this is amazing for story writers
Thanks for posting. Enlightening and informative. Love Michael's energy.
Hell yeah,this man got skill
Improv is so great.
F'n brilliant. Brilliant.
This why Middleditch & Schwartz is so profoundly underrated.
Omg! I love him! I've been a waitress for 19 years and this analogy describes it perfectly!!
Ok Keegan-Michael, where is that podcast about improv techniques?? I never knew I needed something more than I know that now. DO IT!!!
wow new appreciation for actors now, well maybe just Key. Yeah only Key.
Very good intro to improv
I would have gone with " what the fuck, I ordered a clown not dino!"
Great to see the process!
1:45 my dad's chauffeur jumped at this part. I gotta be careful what i am listening to when he's driving lol
I love him
Wow. Amazing.
I think Micheal would be perfect for Whose Line is It Anyways
This makes me want to learn improv.
Any tips on where to start? Online resources? :)
Depends where you are. Easiest way is through a class or intro workshop. Truth in Comedy is an improv bible of sorts but improv is more about practice than theory.
Find a group that does improv in your area.
If not, find people and start one. Non-formal education groups/organizations. Find them and propose.
Oh gosh ain’t he sweet ! Love Keegan so much
I fuckin love Keegan.
Very helpful, thank you
He's in s movie where this exact thing happens. It's called
Don't Think Twice
Sounds a lot like basketball in that the ball will find the open person.
Just be patient and “define the reality” and don’t panic while we let it develop.
GENIUS
Wow amazing
black and white is so cool.
Interracial, fuck yeah.
This is so awesome!
NOOIICCEEE
Strange choice of career since leaving Everton
sixteen saves against Belgium, bruh!
life experience helps.
Brilliant!!
Sooo interesting
this is damn interesting
this was playing away from me so all i could do was listen to this. WAT THE FUCK ARE THEY TALKING ABOUT
Why isn't he already an Oscar or Cannes winner.
never taught of it this way !
I got your back…waaaay back!
Wow!
that would be pretty funny if someone was trying to show off to Lorne Michaels with their dinosaur impression
Mad TV was always better than SNL
no doubt
Jim Carrey on in living color.... best sketches ever.
Fucking genius 👏
KMK IS THE MAN
What does Sam mean at the beginning when he says "at the beginning of each show there's a improv tradition I know it I know it happens at Iowa..."? Did Sam or Keegan do improv at the University of Iowa?
I assume what he said was "IO," (not Iowa). iO stands for the ImprovOlympic theater in Chicago.
I've tried to explain this to my podcast partner....he just doesnt understand it.
yes he can improvise but can he perform lines from Henry V by Shakespeare?
nice fedora
probs easier to perform lines from Henry V, then to improvise well
Yeah. I also think it's easier to learn lines and how to perform them than to learn to think like these improvisers do.
Hey, it's the guy from animal planet!
Nooooiiiiice !
Very could explanation for someone who has no experience to start with.
cool
ohhh
In a way, not accepting the dinosaur person is not having their back.
No, it is. You're in a trench under machinegun fire. One dude starts yelling and jumps up to run into the hail of bullets, so you pull him back and pin him down. That IS having his back.
Man, Keegan is such a great actor and yet he hasn't really had any good roles I can think of since K&P...
This looks like... almost too clean
y’all see that pit sweat tho? i’m not judging i be having that same issue tbh
Its tripping me out that they both have the exact same beard
Seems a lot like taking psychedelics... wondering if people are on your side, reading actions and circumstances deeper than what might be "normal"
I love Keegan-Michael Key but what the hell is he talking about???
Keegan cares WAY too much about improv. I'm assuming this INTENSE improv drama unfolded in front of an audience of about 12 people.
Probably more than that. But also you want people that care about what they are doing or else what's the point.
He's got some super sweaty pits
sense of our relationship
figure out where you are
dungeons and ragons
2:52 those pit stains
is it just me does keegan seem angry
But you never went back to the Mom!
List of things funnier than IMPROV
1) Clipping toenails
2) Attending your mothers funeral
3) Amending your tax returns
4) Flipping the USB cord to plug it in the right way
5) Stubbing your toe on the coffee table
-Zanzabar Jenkins, this is the OFFICIAL consensus of reddit
People still do this?
+MagicManGreg Nah, but he does it. He seems to be a little behind.
+Neon Flare Shame. Couldn't even use an original avatar either.
Gold! rip your inbox
Improv isn't meant always to be funny
man, must be hot there, you sweating hard
2:52 Nice pit stain man...
Yea.. he's human.
Quick notify the press! Someone is perspirating over here like a normal mammal!
comedy is made from blood sweat and tears
Sweaty pits
inprov is gay honest
