Production kawaii have also opened auditions, a bit smaller than PC but still worth checking out I think.

Phase connect are pretty promising from what I've seen, their EN talents are maybe a little behind Tsunderia in size despite only being around for a month, and that'd partly be from the amount of money they were throwing at advertising in the lead-up to debuts.
Worth noting they've got an EN/JP split, though some of the EN talents speak no Japanese and get by on deepl where necessary so there's seemingly no hard requirements there. Hard to know if they'll keep this up for gen 2, the JP side isn't doing terribly but they're still a fair bit behind the ENs.
Seem to have a decent amount of creative freedom, the rabbit kind of pushes the boundaries for vtubing in general and the amount of flak she's caught from management seems mild comparatively so I doubt most people would run into any issues there.

Prod Kawaii's application form is kind of a pain for a small company. Feels a lot less accessible because they're looking for very specific people. On top of that they don't want to take risks with character ideas so they have pre-prepared designs that are just human.

Anyone here is preparing/doing your reps while still working full time? I’m not a VTuber (yet), just trying to be a normal “““content creator””””, but the full time job takes so much time that it feels pretty demotivating at times since gathering footages and editing take so much time too.

I started vtubing a couple of weeks ago while still working full time, under no illusions I'll ever make enough to leave it either. It's just because I enjoy it. Strraming has a way faster feedback loop than video creation so it's easier to get motivated over it. I made like a 2 minute meme clip from one of my streams and it took about as long to put together as the stream itself. Hang in there anon, it's mainly about time management and you can also use social media like twitter to remind people you exist if you don't have time to make content that day or week.

The discord group? Everything. It's a group of people with no idea what they're doing. At least Isekai Inc tried to get their affairs in order before failing to launch.

Vstars just wants to jump into it but they have nothing prepared and they could barely answer any questions professionally on the AMA. One of them even kept burping into the mic during it. Most of the important questions were met with "that's a good question uhhhh we'll look into it".

My guess is they pick their best suck-up applicants that won't complain because "I'm in a group!", get a bunch of inexperienced fans to be managers, drama ensues from disorganisation and internal clashes, and it all falls apart in a few months.

>Please keep in mind that VStars is not currently offering financial assistance or hardware for our streamers - you are ultimately responsible for your own equipment and content creation
>However, please keep in mind that VStars is not currently a monetized company, and as such, will not be providing Live2D models or rigs for our talent. We also do not require our selected talent to take on a role / persona that VStars has created; you will apply with your own vtubing persona, and if accepted, we will be promoting your own channel and content.
>While VStars is a group - in other words, not for profit - we do not plan to have our artists or talent sign contracts. We are not making money from you or your content; we are simply here to help support and promote one another! When VStars becomes a full-fledged company, we do plan to require contracts for our partnered artists and talent. When that time comes, our current generation(s) of talent and our featured artists will be the first we negotiate with about terms, expectations, and perks. At that time, you can choose to decline and graduate, or to accept and become a full partner after we draft a contract.
Tldr:
>You don't get paid and need to have your own model/setup. You're basically just joining a group while doing your own thing.
>They won't make you sign a contract and give them anything yet but probably will in a few months if you want to stay in the group.
The way I see it they're just trying to get vtubers with a pre-established fanbase to sign up so that they can start charging them for being part of a group in a few months. Realistically if you're new there shouldn't be any downside to applying for this and then just leaving after you've gotten the potential initial interest popularity from being part of a new agency and they start asking for contracts.
Though if they do end up asking you to sign a contract I'd recommend against it as they're basically giving you nothing for it.

Business casual.
Show your professionalism, its a job and you're there to do it. But don't just be professional, people want personality and openness. You just gotta find the balance.
E.G. don't act like a robot answering everything with literal canned lawyer responses. But at the same time don't open up about how your dad just died and gaming is the only way to cope.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7397968
I work full time (9-5, M-F), and have two scheduled streams a week. Also guerrilla streams probably 1 time a week on average. Hit affiliate on 6 weeks (to the day!)

I don't think I could have done it if I wasn't still WfH - I did a lot of networking reps during downtime on work; and a lot of prep (twitter announcement posts, getting OBS set up, watching tutorials, etc), which I wouldn't be able to do at the office.

Now I'm set up, I think I should be able to keep going though. I've no expectation of hitting partner (I'm 30 y/o, male, and not an artist).

The editing side is lacking - I'm pretty much just uploading VODs and clips to YT. But I'm trying to learn something new each week, whether it's a trick in GIMP for making the posters, or setting up transitions/hotkeys in OBS. I'm looking to learn at some point, but I'm currently a pngTuber, working on pretty slow games, with a relatively small audience, so there's very little I can actually edit into anything decent - it's just my logorrhea for five hours.

But I'm doing more prepwork, watching chuubas with similar characters to see what they do I can learn from and the like.

How much is 'reps' a here phrase? I used it in a collab with a few other chuubas that I know don't come here, and none of them used it. But I know Nina does, and she supposedly doesn't come here at all.

>>7405584
the only upside I can see would be it's saving you the hassle of networking, to leech fans off someone else. But that's dependant on you matching content, and being smaller.

>>7407260
ADHD, and scheduling tweets. If you come up with something that could be a funny thought, or that someone else could relate to, write the tweet, and schedule it for later in the week. Aim for ~2 tweets and ~5 replies a day.

Lucky you. When I was still WfH, I tried to do preps as much as possible (how to set up OBS so it fucks my recording the least, how to use audacity and how to do some basic editing, etc) but I stopped WfH now, and even worse I’ve entered a period of continuous overtime so I can’t do much on weekdays anymore.

At least I know that people do watch the gameplay VODs I uploaded and the little review I made was decent enough to earn a few likes and comments.

Not that anon, but being full-time work at home has made a lot of the setup work for vtubing possible. Even though I don't really do anything besides work during the workday, no longer having an hour commute each way frees up so much time I can use towards streaming and stream prep. Sorry to hear you're getting hit with a lot of mandatory OT.

Only retards think referencing 4chan is an issue.

Don't try and make it seem like "Oh anyone can get lucky and do it last second!" she has YEARS of content creation and skills under her belt. This is why I say the video is a technicality, it's to find out if there's any "diamonds in the rough" that might be worth picking up.

I was going to, but then I ended up speaking the full five minutes and I was sort of happy with it so I left it as is. I think Pomu mentioned she threw in clips, but then again, for her she had so much other content I think it didn't matter. As some others have said, JP members who have shared their stuff all seem to have made completely original, uncut stuff, which in my opinion might be better to show that you can actively keep someone engaged for the full 5 minutes, as opposed to having to scrounge for "best bits"

It's not that bad. I've prepped lots of people for colonoscopies and everyone tells me the worst part of it is the prep. You basically chug in about a gallon of laxative to poop your guts out. For the procedure itself, they give you the good stuff before taking a peek and afterwards, you won't even remember it.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7426389
I don't think the bar for EN and JP are anywhere near one another. The EN one for both Holo and Niji feels so much higher that it's ridiculous. Look at the complete rando failed nobody VAs and radio show girls they pick for JP groups vs someone like Gura (on the higher end) and Ame (on the lower end still with 200 average viewers). I think Fina is the one REAL exception but I also think she's shown her skill despite never actually debuting and I really don't feel some random 6 week vtuber has any shot. The people who are picked will just be existing chuubas with lots of experience and probably a decent following just like every other time.

That doesn't sound bad at all. A good colon cleanse sounds alright, actually.

Hololive is a really high bar to compare to. Niji still picked girls with a decent track record and Fina being the exception, but they feel far less strict than Holo.
HoloEN set the bar absurdly high, and I'm afraid Niji may do the same for future auditions.
>>7426538
>>7426690
I had to do something similar for an ecography and endoscopy. Prep is really the worst part. I'm hypoglychemic and I can't really can't go for long periods of time without eating, so the part of having to chug laxatives AND not eat anything like 12 hours prior was really rough.

Even with Niji, they still picked 2 fairly large and well-experienced talents and then one that's still well experienced and shown they've got what it takes having made it to the finals of HoloEN, something which I'm going to go ahead and assume most people here aren't otherwise they wouldn't be asking in the first place.

If youre having good growth as an indie is it worth it to apply to a group? I have a background that would help me get into one but I'm not sure what you even really get out of grouping up.

its a typo, if they ask about it you can explain. if they get upset about it even with an explanation then you have a reason to never deal with them.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7428923
depends on the group
generally the benefits are you grow as a group, if you're a smaller vtuber its a net benefit.
for example look at PRISM, the growth of Luto and Shiki has brought all of them into the 10k+ range when normally they'd never have gotten there on their own. Or for a more extreme example look at hololive and nijisanji, solely by being in the group new members are immediately shot to 100k subs before they even debut.
plus you get the tribalfags who'll watch everyone just to say they watch everyone in the group.

also offloads the work of PR interacting with other companies and vtubers by having the company do it for you, frees up more time to let you stream. and they'll handle things like merch and stuff which you likely wouldn't have handled if you were solo.

If you can work it indie and you get big alone, its fine to do as is. But most people want to offload this stuff without having to pay out of pocket, and the popularity boost you get just from being in the same group as more popular people is hard to pass up. And groups will be willing to take a less 'popular' member because the variety it brings to the group is a net benefit as well.

All I can say is that it's typically either mentioned in the actual casting call post for a few of the newer ones, or as part of the later interview stage. Contact groups you're applying for, odds are they'll tell you straight up if they do or don't have one but a lot of them do.

It's just an odd thing for them to advertise because to some lazier people it says "Hey, come work for us for a bit for "Free" money then take off once you get bored." which is why it isn't brought up much.

No, it's impossible to tell because of how many people likely wouldn't admit it. I would say it's probably LESS than one would imagine due to how much the application asks you to invest into it.
>Do you think the male auditions had more or less applicants than the female ones?
Less, but not dramatically so. And I would say that's because Hololive is more prominently known in the west than nijisanji, and so there are less male vtubers in the public view, which makes it seem less viable to western men to vtube instead of regularly stream. I would also suggest that's mostly just a perception issue, though it's true no man would get a cunny bonus to their early subscription numbers.

There's loads of discords, but they're of limited help if you're not starting from anything. They're full of try-hards and NGMIs, asking basic questions and shitting it all up.

Start by watching streamers who've made it. See what they do. Then watch a few shitty 2-view hoodietubers, see where they're shit.

Then just go live with your own avatar, stream for a few hours, see how you feel about it. Do some more streams, learn more as you go, and start putting it together more and more.

One piece of advice I was given I ignored it was start with a burner account. Then, when you inevitably fuck it up, you can abandon it and just re-start on a primary.

You're doing great prof!

Thanks! Very flattered by the engagement and interest I've gotten in some pretty non-traditional streams/not popular current games. Looking forward to streaming more and polishing my content further. I'm also super flattered to have gotten words of encouragement from other indies who are much better established. There's a lot of good, supportive people out there.

Your karaoke streams are amazing.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7462223
Thank you! I've got one planned for Saturday, adding a ton more songs to the list. So any recommendations you've got, any genre, would be much appreciated. I'm going to add some classic anime songs, stuff from games, but also lots of boomer rock and oldies. Old jazz standards (Beyond the Sea, Can't Take My Eyes Off You) were really popular last time, so I'll be doing more like that, too. One anon recommended adding Disney stuff, and that's a great idea. So any recommendations, no matter how outside the box, are much appreciated!

I'll try to do an opera/classical karaoke once a month. Those I really ought to do prep work for. They're a good excuse for me to learn opera roles I'll probably never get to sing, though.

i think for the most part, people only linked themselves here a couple of times before going over to link in places like /wvt/ so that's probably why it seemed that way; its actually kind of interesting to see another group of chuubas popping from this thread again

Great suggestion! I'll add that to my 50s/60s playlist. Also adding Only You, and Unchained Melody. Stuff in that style is so fun to sing.

Something to take note of, just in case you haven't done it already, would be to record the stream locally in case parts of the VOD get muted so that you can still clip out parts and upload them later

I have been, I remember someone giving me that advice a while back. I could always have the videos unlisted on my YouTube. I probably won't be able to upload regular karaoke VODs. Even my opera one got hit with a bunch of content matches. None got muted so far I don't think though.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7459338
I know. I just wish I wasn't so anxious. I listen to my VODs and all I can hear is someone terrified to be there. Something I have to work on, I guess.

Don't discourage him, if I can have double digit viewers on an opera stream, a piano streamer can do that. Especially if you play things like vocaloid music, vtuber songs, etc. Go for it, anon!

I like having a layer of anonymity between myself and the audience. If I ever make it it’d be nice to still be able to go to Walmart unmolested.
Plus it’s a streaming aesthetic where karaoke is accepted. I feel like that’s be weird to do as a nocam.
Doubleplus it’s fun to RP as someone whose hair can grow long.

you're gonna find out real fucking quick that most vtubers are even more insufferable because they have the anonymity of the internet and a virtual avatar. some fucks will not stop DMing you on twitter, constantly begging you to join their discord server to get on voice chats, they're gonna act like you're suddenly best friends because you have the same artist or rigger. they'll trauma dump on you because you're twitter mutuals and no other reason, then expect you to support them financially.

Do any of you low-count guys have people dropping in on your streams and just being obnoxious? I did a board game tier list last night. 7 hours of what were basically 100+ mini-reviews. It wasn't popular or anything, but I really wanted to do it and mostly had a good time. But I had one guy come in who didn't seem interested and just wanted to tell "fun facts" the whole time. And there was someone who just kept asking about Monopoly and telling me how boring the topic is.

How do you deal with that? I just put up with it, but it sort of brought my own enjoyment down.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7471541
Oh that weirdo? It was pretty obnoxious, but I felt I didn't have much room to talk. Usually if it's too obnoxious I ignore it, though I blocked a few people when I was multicasting to Youtube.

That sounds like a bummer, sorry you had to deal with that, anon. I've never kicked or blocked a viewer before, but that might be worth doing if they're being that obnoxious. Sounds like they'd bring the mood down for other viewers too, and for you.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7471541
You need to tell them to fuck off immediately or have a moderator who knows how to deal with them. It ruins the mood for chat and it puts you in a bad one as well. I can't stand bad chatters

since you are a normalfag you probably cant comprehend that people on the internet, specifically on a site like twitch and even more so in a category like vtubers are gonna be a bit awkward and autistic
they arent necessarily doing it on purpose. you need to communicate what is okay and not and guide the discussion if it gets out of hand
