In comic acting, to improvise effectively is quite difficult. A lot of actors can improvise up to a certain level - an entry level, which is when you see the actors having more fun than the audience.

On working with Robin Williams and Billy Crystal: "These guys are hilarious. You go in to work with the lines memorized, and the second you get out there it`s like - Oops, there goes the script! They`re rewriting it, improvising on the spot and I have to ...
Charlie Hofheimer
But in a strange way, the more organization and the more preparation you do, the more freedom it gives to the performances and to those things that are totally dependent on those moments when you shoot. Visual things are very complicated. I can`t improvis...
Neil Jordan
It was so hard working for him, but I like the challenge. We don`t learn the script, every day we had to, erm ... improvise. [on working with Wong Kar-wai in `2046`]
Zhang Ziyi
I always improvise, you know. That`s my thing. Luckily, I`m a writer, so I always try...If there`s great writing, improvising just adds a little bit more to it. Just takes it to another level. `Cause an actor, believe it or not, really knows his character...

The album`s very much about being alone in your house, in a very quiet sort of introverted mood and you whisper, you sort of improvise. Which is between me and myself. (about her album `Vespertine`)

It`s absolutely impossible to improvise. Making a movie is a mathematical operation. It is like sending a missile to the moon. It isn`t improvised. It is too defined to be called improvisational, too mechanical. Art is a scientific operation, so I can say...

You don`t improvise. Well, you might improvise in a moment, trying to find something but for the most part everything is written by Woody, every word.

With Altman, he does discuss everything with you, but then leaves you to it and gives you full rein and lets you improvise and create a character while the camera is rolling.
Vincent D`Onofrio
We always feel pretty creative as far as writing songs. We write them together; we just get in a room, or on occasion in Flea`s garage. We just sort of improvise, like jazz musicians.
Chad Smith
There are times when the writers ask us to improvise. Sometimes the animators are inspired by what you do, and sometimes you are inspired by what the animators do.
Dan Castellaneta
So, for instance, if you came to me, I`d ask,`Do you want to write? Do you want to improvise? Why do you want to play this instrument? What do you want to do?`
Ornette Coleman
My voice is my improvisational instrument, the melody instrument. The guitar is harmonic structure. I`m not a good enough guitarist to improvise on it.
Paul Simon
It`s hard to improvise that kind of stuff, whereas the McKenzies are easy to improvise, because it`s the two of us, and the material is pretty basic.

I like doing them and they`re ridiculous and the actors can improvise a lot, and they don`t have to be really realistic characters that hit a very specific tone as in a feature film. They`re really fun, I want to make more of them definitely.
Jim Jarmusch
I am an improviser, ... I improvise music. Whatever you want to call it all, it is all improvised music. I may capture it and go back and write it down for others, but it was originally improvised.
Joe Zawinul
I also think if you`re an actor and you can improvise, when you go on an audition and you can improvise you`re just a genius. If you can, you know, take a Tide commercial and you can just say one funny line that`s not in the commercial they think you`re a...

But I also think that the more you reason collectively about what the project should be at the beginning of the process, the more you can improvise later.
