i never write scripts or anything for my vids (mostly beacause i do live commentaries) but i try to think of mabey some jokes that would work with my vids to keep veiwers entertained but i usally just give up and come up with bad jokes on the spot. so any tips on thinking of good jokes before my videos?
 
Sorry man but it's neon impossible to come up with "good jokes" when it comes to live commentaries, well unless you're psychic. It's just something that has to come to you. You can maybe write down things to talk about, but that's about it.
 
I think commentaries can quickly feel "rehearsed" or "fake" if you aren't the greatest at slipping a pre-thought up joke or if you even scripted yourself. People watch for you personality, so if it feels forced or fake you probably wont get as many people watching you.

this is what i had been thinking i just wanted to see if there was some kind of magic to it haha! but mabey i will try thinking of things to talk about instead!
 
I think we have the same problem here.. XD But actually, i have no problem about creating a joke on the spot, but English is not my native language.. So, it's kinda hard to do it fluently.. But i always work it out..

IMO, don't push yourself too hard for a joke.. Just do your best, jokes is not always a verbal joke, you can do slapstick if you want..
 
I think something that may help you a lot with this: read up on improv and do some exercises. It will help gear your brain in that direction.
