Site Map
Table
of Contents — 2 web site versions of my Information for:
Stand-Up Comics, Business Keynote Speakers,
Politicians, ventriloquists & other solo acts.
Previews of all my products
and services are now spread out over these two web addresses
As I transition between my:
1)
Flash Player version web page (2006-2010) with
legacy text, audio and video at Jim
Richardson.com
2) The more mobile-device-friendly version (2011-2017) like this web
page
That features
some of my legacy material.
Here is where all my
latest text, audio and video can be found: Stand-UpComedyWorkshop.com
"Home Study Program (HSP) for Stand-Up Comics, Business Keynote Speakers,
Politicians, ventriloquists and other solo acts" —
1,200 pages of workbooks and related hand-outs, plus 21 hours of audio.
1) These HSP materials were originally designed to support my live Workshops which
are now also offered both:
•live, in-person and
•online, live over the internet
through interactive web video conferencing
via your computer's or smart phone,
digital assist or tablet's webcam.
2) Plus, my students and clients order
my HSP as a supplement to our one-on-one
Coaching & Co-Writing consultations
•which
can be taken in-person, and/or through Internet video conferencing,
over the
telephone, email, or snail mail.
•This is how you can get my feedback on
your performance videos, whether posted online or snail mailed to me via DVD,
scripts, audio, etc.
Video previews and course outlines are available at these 2 web addresses:
1) Flash Player version that plays on 98% of all desktop and laptop
computers begun June in 2006:
This version
offers 12 stand-alone audio/workbook package
outlines with Flash video previews using Flash Player.
Here's the rub that prompted my creating a mobile-first second version of
my web site:
•Flash Player is barred from Apple hand-held, mobile iOS devices
created since June 29, 2007, like iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad.
Update: Adobe owns Flash and in July
2017 announced that it will no longer support
Flash after the end of 2020.
Some browsers partially block Flash now; so, you may need to at least temporarily unblock it.
For how-to
instructions, go here and scroll down to "Free Tools>Flash Player":

There is still a lot legacy stuff only available here via Flash Player,
like
my "Tip-of-the Day video jukebox" and
"Radio
Show: Tip-of-the-Week archives":

for some video previews, i.e.,
