If you want to be an actor, you need to learn how to act first, even in sketch comedy.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
To do comedy, you have to be a pretty good actor to start with.
Acting is a craft, and you need to study to be an actor.
I think to be a good actor you need either a good experience of life or education, or both.
Wanting to be a good actor is not good enough. You must want to be a great actor. You just have to have that.
To be a great actor, you really don't need to go to acting school or learn dance classes or work on your body. You have to be intelligent. You have to draw on a lot of emotions that you go through in life that you can tap into once you work on a set.
The process of doing plays will make you an actor.
The best way to learn how to work with actors is to have had experience of trying to act yourself - it will teach you humility if nothing else.
There are lots of actors, and you need a way to stand out. Writing comedy sketches was a way of doing that.
The thing about being an actor is that every new job is a new challenge. Sometimes you'll have a shot, and it doesn't work. Sometimes it'll work better than you expected.
As an actor, all you want to do is to work and do good work.
