What is /asp/?

A thread for aspiring vtubers! Whether your goal is to make the journey as an independent streamer or to gain experience and build a portfolio for agency auditions. Let's help each other grow and make it. Indies are welcome to selfpost, but shill responsibly. Share your knowledge, insights, feedback, discuss what has worked and what hasn't worked for you. And always remember to do your research before posting personally identifying information. That includes both in this thread and in your audition applications to agencies.

FAQ:
>Do I need a fully rigged model to be a vtuber?
Nope! You can get started as a simple .png character!

>I want to learn how to rig Live2D models, where do I go?
Brian Tsui (of Iron Vertex), Kira Omori and the official Live2D YouTube channels have many tutorials available.

>Where can I find artists/riggers?
vtuber.gg, ArtStation, DeviantArt, Twitter, Reddit, Skeb.jp, etc.

>I just want to get started, can I buy pre-made models?
Yes! Live2D models can be purchased off nizima.com (Live2D's official marketplace) or booth.pm (general Japanese indie artist website). Be sure to check compatibility with your facial tracking software!

>Where can I learn how to digital market myself?
https://learndigital.withgoogle.com/digitalgarage

>Where can I find some good games to stream?
https://twitchtracker.com/games
https://sullygnome.com/

>Twitch or YouTube?
The general rule of thumb is Twitch if your content is primarily based on livestreaming and YouTube if your content is primarily pre-recorded and edited.

>Do you think there's an audience for X, Y, Z content?
First, ask yourself if you would watch a streamer of your skill and experience. Second, do a check on social media and look to see if other streamers are already creating similar content. Don't limit yourself to vtubers, include traditional real life streamers to scope out a potential audience.

Feeling really discouraged that I clearly didn't pass auditions again. I'm fairly certain I've improved my audition every time I sent one, and my content has been getting more recognition lately, but I never get more than 1 view on my auditions with only seconds of it watched. I don't know what I'm doing wrong, when I've heard stories of people throwing their audition together in movie maker and getting in. Any advice? I really try to make the first 30 seconds catching and show off my experience during that time frame as well to no avail.

The only way anyone could actually help is to watch your audition. I won't ask you to post it though because ppl here point and laugh.

Anyways, I believe in u anon, you can't stop now

>>40277515
yeah it's always hard for me to ask for advice cuz I don't want to screw my chances by showing a bunch of people my audition. I'll continue working on my content and try again when possible, just feels bad when I've already tried so many times :(

why the fuck do i always get sick every time i actually feel motivated to stream? colds always fuck up my throat for 2 weeks, i sound like a hag on her death bed.

>>40276378
it might not be the video, maybe it's your answers on the form? if i was looking through thousands of applications, if i already knew we wouldn't be taking somebody because their answers were shit, i probably wouldn't waste time watching their tape.

how the fuck are people supposed to tune into your channel when they don't even know you exist?

>> No.40282198

>>40276378
Does your audition start with a self intro? pass
Does your audition start with your voice up in your throat from anxiety? pass
Does your audition start with a lore video? pass
Does your lore video have an intro with more than 3 seconds before the first line of dialogue? HARD PASS

Basically for an audition you have to turn yourself into the biggest attention whore possible without passing too far over the obnoxious line. Start with a funny clip, a witty remark, a sus line of dialoge. Avoid starting with a scream clip.
You have 2 seconds to grab a crumb of their attention to not turn off the video
If you pass this, you have 10 seconds to generate a pinch of interest or set up a joke
If you pass this, you have 30 seconds to deliver a punchline or resolve a tension or finish a thought that will leave a lasting impression
If you can get past 30 seconds then you can go into more detail about yourself.
You need to distill down your best parts and most memeable self into those first 10-30 seconds. You have zero room to make a slow burn audition.

I've had audtitons manage to get to 35 seconds viewed before they clicked off so I had something going there, only problem was creating those really interesting 35 seconds took a damn month to create. Still, I think I often start with a self introduction too often so it could also be that.

you're not cut out to be a corpo streamer if it takes you a month to craft something that lasts 35 seconds

I don't think you understand what you're saying. Women have complained as much about other women in the other discord. Most of the complaints about men weren't targeted at babis and the only real complaint about babis came from someone that has many of their own problems and drama. If guys want to ERP in VR chat as babis that's their prerogative.

One, stop aiming for corpos until you have some kind of following.
Two, you have skills, do something with those skills already that do not involve trying to get into a corporation.

I have used my skills outside of applying for corpos to decent reception so far, but I guess I should try and build up my following even more and stream a bit more often. I'll try and just keep doing that and maybe try and make a better audition tape next time.

How about the other ones where female vtubers called them those things? You can't leave out the part where Taffy had the meltdown after making people uncomfortable with spamming borderline virtual questionable images. If Taffy left because of babis it seemed almost everyone else was grateful they out-weirded that trainwreck.
