    What type of class should an actor start out with?

    The only classes given nearby are on-screen/audition technique classes which I feel unprepared for. I learn valuable information with these classes regarding casting and the technical side, but I still feel unprepared if I were to go and audition and actually...

    For comp cards

    Hey actors, does anyone have a preferred site for making their comp cards? I'm just searching the sites that came up on Google and the first page of options are all pretty terrible. Does anyone have a diamond in the rough or a lesser known site they use?

    Can everyone be an actor and is it easy?

    A lot of people say that everyone can be an actor, I never believed that but maybe it's just me. I've also read on the internet that it's really hard to get a job as an actor and make a living with it, is that true?
