Inflation Livestream Question

from my recent experience - it's like how Terry Prachett has written about banks. If you ask bank's money you have to show that you don't need bank's money.

in my case - if I wanted to ask money to hire an artist, I had to show I don't need an artist. Beautifully made pictures, gorgeous looking project and professional studio product only an artist is able to produce could win the funding to hire an artist. However, if I would be able to make such pictures, why would I need to hire an artist? I explained in detail why investing isn't an option for me, and attached full credentials, every organization in those owns a decent portfolio of mine. What can I say - I'm terrible at selling anything and I know that. I just accepted failure (although having anything incomplete is a big blow to personal pride) because failure to make my game happen is also an option for me - an option of spending more time with family.

in your case - if you want to ask money to buy a camera, you need to show you already have a camera. Invest your own money, and produce paid offline videos or top-up Skype account, or pay for other online conference services. If - like me - you can't invest, just use webcam or phone for starters, and earn towards your goal. Or - accept that timing was wrong and just put this idea on hold ^_^

Speaking of putting on hold - apologies for repeated advice, but you do need a solution for whatever drove you away previous time before you resume. If it's harrassment - just have a plan and stick to it, you can even prepare messages you'll send in that case and contacts you'll report to in case it happens. If it's burnout - make a very relaxed schedule, and stick to it. Otherwise this time will end much worse than previous - it's always like that with failures, in any area of life. For your sake, you need it solved before you return big time, enlightened, sexy and inspired ^_^
