I was at a community event last week, interpreting for a comedian, and let me tell you, timing is everything! The punchline was so fast that I found myself fingerspelling ‘what?’ mid-air. Anyone else had a moment where you just had to laugh at the craziness of our job?
I can totally relate — timing’s everything — once I missed a punchline and ended up fingerspelling a whole sentence mid-laugh. It’s tough when you’re trying to keep up with the energy, right? Have you tried practicing with stand-up clips to improve your timing?
Oh man, I’ve been there! During a quick set, I once ended up fingerspelling a whole joke before I caught up. Have you found any tricks to keep up with fast punchlines?
