There are so many comments here talking about clowns being useless, scary, stupid... But that is not true, clown is a form of theatre and one of the purest. Clown, too, is art and the training behind it is much harder than just painting your face; you have to get full control of your body, voice, expressions and thoughts. You cannot be a dramatic actor/actress if you cannot step out of your human world and be extra mundane. Being a clown is being able to be present and in that manner, entertain people, make them laugh. That is the hardest and most Noble artistic profession I can possibly think of.
Clowning is well and alive however clown is dead thanks to serial killer John Wayne Gacy and the American culture that promotes such cynical depiction of clowns. Who knows, maybe a clown is due for an image rehab.
@@hyojoonus You are 100% right. Its movies and media who portrayed a bad clown image. a real true clown isnt scary. A clown is there to relief the audience from all the tension in the other acts. He enlarges emotions. He makes you sympathize with him, he puts a miror in front of you and shows all the emotions in the world and makes them bigger. Being funny is a VERY serious bussines and a hard one to. Because an act has to precise. If timing is a splitsecond of then it can be less funny. Or even not funny at all.
Laughter is the best medicine. Those who can make us laugh are healers. Noble profession indeed.
This is so fucking funny oh my god how is no one else seeing this is the comedy itself
Freeeedom! That's what it's all about. And all the rest is either taught or taken away! Clowning is about being funny from the heart and soul, not acting as such... Loose it all, and then give what's left!
Beauty and the beast roil within... what's left but a silly slate to begin?"
I don't think I'd ever be offended by anything he says, because I couldn't understand any of it.
Another theater teacher who teaches through humiliation.
This whole video comes off as a satire sketch 😅
Good.
I love this hot fuzz beginning

Bruh this taught me sm woow
The man is just an angry old man

Clown is more difficult
Here from Rogan, Dunnigan, Metzger.
the funniest part about this is he gets people to pay him to do this
People never realize how much work goes into being a clown
It takes so much energy and is such a important life form

Hi Zach
"'i'm sure there's been suicides"
humans trying to be puppets maybe,our Kiwi guy man with tape on his face comes close!
Yes! Always wanted to be a clown!
he looks like me if i was an 80 year old
I showed this video to my therapist and she thinks Gaulier is an asshole of a teacher. I disagree with her. Philippe Gaulier is a genius.
Who else is here from rogan?😂
i feel like he would have been a good teacher like 20 years ago, now he's just old and you can't understand what he's saying.
yeah this guy is hilarious

5 Letters MUPPET
this is laughable in the worst of ways, send those hot clowns to my house.
this is like that episode of king of the hill where bobby becomes a clown and so unfunny...
Hank makes him realize that even prop comedy is better than this nonsense.
When pretentious meets talent
Personally, I think it's a waste of time and money. How can you have one guy dictate what is funny or not. The humor is in the eye of the beholder. If humor was universal, there wouldn't be so many genres of it. This guy is a clown and they're all clowns for believing him.
It's not one guy deciding. In the video, it's explained that he tries to express what he thinks the audience is feeling based on their own laughter.
You’ve literally just stated what he has said multiple times throughout the video- that they are close when the audience is laughing. It’s tough for people to learn that, but you could basically do standup or systematically train on another audience
@Jimmy John remember that scene from the joker? Where Joaquín phoenix explained that the audience dictates what's funny or not? Lol
@Jimmy John that's interesting, I was contemplating that the other night looking at the difference between heath ledgers and Joaquíns make up. Heath actually did his own amateur clown make up and also Joaquíns was done without loud colours.
It’s discipline.
Mental gymnastics…
why would anyone wanna be a clown? wat the hell
I see you made this comment four years ago but being a clown is a key part of theatre. You can't jump into a drama if you can't step out and make fun of yourself. Clown teaches you to leave all your worries aside and give people laughs by making a LOT of effort. You see, if you watch good clown routines, you'll notice these people need at least a year of body training to have full control of their movements. The clown is one of the purest and hardest forms of theatre because just like a Kings jester, it is meant to entertain with laughter.
A+ documentary of the biden administration
You spelled trump wrong, him and his whole administration are a bunch of incompetent clowns
You both are jackasses. Clown is an art form, politicians are bums. Don’t be such team playing sycophants. Enjoy the clowns bringing joy, disdain the bozos in DC
🙄🙄🤮🤮
Clowns have never been funny, just creepy
