- "Excellent course. Top notch. Really helped me with my confidence in front of camera, especially the work on stillness and other very useful technical direction from the coaches."
- "I signed up to Bigoli's intensive acting workshop and I'm so glad I did! It was a great way to meet fellow actors and practice a scene in a really positive and encouraging environment. Our coaches were not just lovely people but also provided really helpful feedback during those three days. I would recommend the workshop to anyone wanting to improve their on-camera skills."
- "This was by far one of the best workshops I've ever attended! The screen acting intensive was so inspiring that I already want to sign up for more! 😅 I highly recommend it to anyone curious about screen acting. You'll learn so much, meet incredible, talented people, and have a blast! Huge thanks to Morgan, Edward, and Dave for their amazing guidance and for creating such a welcoming atmosphere!✨🎬"
- "I did the acting for film intensive and what an incredible weekend full of learning, experiencing and developing my craft. The class really is open for all - I’m a professional actress that worked alongside students beginning their acting journey and we both learned an impecable amount in the short time. The teachers, Ed and Morgan, created an atmosphere that is friendly and focused. They knew exactly when to push us. A wonderful duo! Seeing Dave work as a camera man and watching others perform live on screen being directed simultaneously was something I never knew I needed to experience. This course elevated my acting on screen abilities!"
