I find the presentation repetitive and not very engaging. It would have been nice to have a downloadable excel sheet to use to follow along.

The Course was a good knowledge-sharing one, a bit too distracting when the host was discussing in depth how to use calculation formulas which stretched the videos a bit, the main focus should have been on how to break down and mentioned the different elements and plan a long-format shoot or web series... A person given this responsibility of preparing a budget would definitely be an accounts/ finance literate person or at least know the calculating formulas. Always try to stick to the theme of the Main Content not deviate and loose the interest of the viewers. Overall good work

It is more basic skill than I had hoped. The numbers in the budget are incorrect (the commas are in the wrong places (i.e. 2,456,00 shows as 2,45,60,0) I am hoping the class goes into more detail on how to reach the numbers. I already know how to use budget software.

Did not explain anything beyond what we could already see on screen. Didn't go into reasoning or methodology for the numbers in the budget. Wasn't clear at all. Poor audio and hard to understand.
