I don't know if this is the right place for this, if it's not I'd appreciate being pointed in the right direction.

Basically I had an idea for a YouTube channel where I combine history and the paranormal. I want to do deep dives into the history of some of the most haunted places on Earth and some of the most commonly reported sightings associated with those locations. Not exactly the most original idea but it combines two of my passions. I already have a few rought drafts for video scripts, but I'm stuck on the visual part. I'm not comfortable showing my face nor do I have the artistic talent to do anything animated, so I don't know what to use for the visual aspect. I've thought about using some stock footage, but that can be very expensive and I'm wary spending so much right off the bat for a channel that might not get any attention.

What options are there for me? If stock footage is the only option, what are the best resources? Thank you so much in advance to anyone who can offer help.
