    <description>I love the immediacy of live streams. If you want to engage audiences, the barriers to entry have never been lower. All you need is an idea and a decent smartphone and you can become a live streamer. But with a camera, microphone, computer connected to the internet, a bit of know-how and a strategic plan then you can become a professional broadcaster and really set yourself apart. In a world flooded with user-generated content, liveness and originality can help you rise to the top. Candour and authenticity are the aspects of live streaming I like most. And I find the unexpected nature of live programmes as rewarding as it is nerve-wracking.
