/auds/ - VTuber Auditions and Workshops

[idol hopeful !btr76hqMa6 No.]

/auds/ Thread #5

Let's discuss our aspirations for VTubing, whether agency-based or something more indie, and help each other grow to hopefully make it as an entertainer. Indies are welcome to join, of course, but try to avoid the common pitfalls that come with being indie.

Stay grounded, but stay hopeful.

Question of the Thread:
There are many successful VTubers to look up to and try to emulate.

Which established VTuber do you aspire and hope to be like later on in your career?

For me, it’s Tokino Sora. I love her work ethic and her dedication. I’d like to become a reliable older sister figure to my viewers, just like how she is to the rest of Hololive.

Personally I really like Aruran's streams a lot, especially the ones where he's learning or having the chat share things with him. The atmosphere in his streams is usually really comfy when I tune in and I hope one day my streams can give off that kind of chill vibe

How do people often decide on a character? Many people seem to have original character types that also end up being quite interesting
Would feel like I'm ripping off some other chuuba if I choose the same thing as them especially since things are so diverse in this community
I'm honestly surprised there is only like ~5 vampire chuubas I've ever come across

Also ngl, choosing JP names as a westerner especially one that doesn't even know the language always seemed kinda cringe to me, but regular western names are too boring and generic. I'm probably gonna spend way too much time trying to think of one

[idol hopeful !btr76hqMa6 No.]

>>435056
Start with the kind of audience you’d like to have. How do you want your fans to see you? Then look at the established VTubers and see if there’s a space for your niche. Artemis and Gura are both sharks but they’re so different in tone and artstyle that they can coexist.

I agree that non-Japanese speakers picking Japanese names is a bit iffy but do remember that many Japanese people pick western names for their characters. Even in games and anime.

I am curious to know, how "high end" of a pc should someone have for getting in to vtubing, and how old of a pc would such a thing even permit

[Anonymous No.]

Anything that can comfortably stream the games you want to play, basically. I can stream most games I play just fine on my R5 3600/R9 290 machine.

>>435056
If you can, choose a name that is representative of your character as a whole or representative of/alludes to one or several major traits your character has. This would make you memorable.
Example:
Mori means Death in latin.
Calliope: "In Greek mythology, Calliope is the Muse who presides over eloquence and epic poetry; so called from the ecstatic harmony of her voice. Hesiod and Ovid called her the Chief of all Muses".

Asking again but does anyone know a place or any courses etc. to learn how to be a better voice actor? I don't intend to use a fake voice or anything, but want to just improve my speaking in general
Just like how a practiced singer have a very easy ability to move between and stay at certain notes moving smoothly between them near there natural singing range, I'd believe a practiced VA would just be the non-singing equivalent able to have great control of their speaking voice able to display emotion as desired (Important for a streamer who want's to seem happy or having fun even if they're not at the exact moment for the viewers sake imo), or be able to make a few subtle adjustments to their natural voice to seem more attractive without having to strain or consciously think all the time

>inb4 trannies have cooties
Actual trannies are so autistic about skull and voice because it makes everything better for them and thus they understand that the human vocal tract can be manipulated to mimic any voices, just habit makes it hard. (It's basically voice coaching 101)

I'll try, but is that thread purely about imitating the other sexes voice type, or regular voice acting too? I'm a male and don't plan on going all fem, I actually wanna double down on my deep voice and try go the Markiplier/Banderas smooth deep voice route

[Anonymous No.]

>>436910
Mostly imitating other sex, but mostly if you want to do that, you need to be aware of the structures of the vocal tract and take control of it. New York Voice Coaching should be your material to read. It has some resources for male voice, but it's anemic.

The redpill is that male voice is much more flexible because you can just always limit space which in turn will color the timbre femininely. You can't expand a small space.

I’m asking this mostly for the sake of my own sanity. Is everyone in this general aware that vtubing is a hobbyist exercise in conning people out of their time and affection? This is not a moral judgement, I genuinely want to learn how to be good at that, but seeing positive people in other threads makes me wonder if I am too cynical.

[Anonymous No.]

>>439094
That's a rather negative way to view the act of entertaining others.
Is playing an instrument and performing a concert also conning people out of their time and affection?

[Anonymous No.]

>>439224
Well, by nature of music, yes. Music is built on a sense of anticipation and release via tonic and dominant harmonies.

Entertainment is in its nature creating an expectation an resolving it in an unexpected way, playing on the human reward circuitry. Is that not it?

It is selfish if you expect something in return.
But beside that, you are “putting” the smile on their face, manipulating them, even if it is for their benefit. And if that is what is happening, you need to care about the craft to do a good job, but not necessarily about the person you are doing it to.

This applies to literally everything, from love and friendship to jobs
It's all a matter of perspective as to how you wanna see things, but there is pure technical realism and then the human abstraction that modifies our perception of that and you need to find a safe level of that abstraction to properly fit into and view society the best way
Technically, literally every single act performed by a human is greed. Even a person who goes to sacrifice their life to save another is acting greedily, in the sense they are doing it even if they don't want to die, but because what they in that instant want more than even their own life is to save someone else
Someone with a gun to their head either following or defying orders under threat of death is acting greedily, taking the action they see will most likely get them what they want in the end
A man not willing to go up on a stage in front of thousands to receive a reward of a million dollars out of fear is acting greedily. He may want that million dollars, but what he wants most of all in that moment is to not stand in front of thousands so he instead cowers in greedy fear

[Anonymous No.]

>>440628
I don't think you have to care about a person you're talking to for it to not be swindling.
To con someone is to manipulate them into doing something that harms them, for your benefit. In which case, watching your performance needs to be tantamount to damaging oneself for it to be a con.

I think that viewing your own performance as tantamount to damaging whoever watches it is, at the very least, an unhealthy mindset. You won't be putting your heart into your performance (caring about the craft to do a good job, as you describe it) at all, because you think your craft is some kind of weapon to harm others.

Genuinely want to learn this as well. I'll be following the train of replies to see what I can make use of.
>>439094
In one of my first streams, I specifically talked about this. Sadly can't direct you since the VOD is no longer available but I'll acknowledge this a bit.

Idol culture is very dependent on the parasocial relationship, and agency (as well as many indie) VTubers are very much patterned after the idol industry.

What I'll say as an agency chuuba is that I'm aware, and I'll be trying all I can to minimize the possible harm that parasocial relationships can cause. I believe it can be healthy as well.

[Anonymous No.]

>>441053
Okay, so maybe saying that vtubing is conning and talking is conning is too negative. Manipulation on it’s own is a tool, it doesn’t have to be a weapon.
But still, the skill one needs to develop to be a good vtuber and not some boring monotonous letsplayer is one of manipulating attention.

I really do want to get good at being entertaining, and it’s clearly not enough to just be really skilled at something to get there. So, I want to understand what entertainment is, so I could do it better.

[Anonymous No.]

>>441827
I also wanna learn how to be a better entertainer, I don't think I really am on at all desu
I'm doing test streams to work up my speaking ability, but I dunno if when I'm able to speak with no inhibition if what comes out would be good
People can train to be better, I know that for sure. The majority of good comedians practice a lot from what I've gathered watching some talk, I just ain't sure how to get into it myself.

[Anonymous No.]

>>441799
Yeah, I saw that VOD. How common is this point of view among professional chuubas, have you talked to them?

[Anonymous No.]

>>441827
I'm a teacher and lemme tell you, manipulation of attention makes my job far easier than it would be if I didn't practice it. Manipulation is a tool, indeed, but it's on you if you wanna be a stand-up comedian who only wants to get some laughs out of people and enjoy the attention or a televangelist that's fully aware he's conning people out of their good will, faith and most importantly, money. Pick up your moral compass and decide for yourself.

[Anonymous No.]

>>442312
Well yeah, agreed.
Is attention manipulation something you learned in college for teachers, or did you figure that out on your own?

[idol hopeful !btr76hqMa6 No.]

>>441957
I might want to do test collaborations too sometime. That’s a good idea. There’s only so much you can do by yourself.

When it comes to being a better entertainer, there are many ways to learn this but an important skill in streaming is what I’d call [Expectation and Reactions].

I’ll use the word “appeal” instead of “manipulate.” If you want to appeal to the viewers, try to think about their expectations. When you feel like you’ve got a hold of it, decide whether to fulfill, defy, or exceed them. This is what’s going to make the moment clippable, memorable, funny, or cute. For example, you die unexpectedly in Apex and your audience knows that you’re a rager. Do you [Defy their expectations and laugh maniacally], [Fulfill them and rage], or [Exceed them and ‘accidentally’ make your mic fall angrily.]

Remember that this is only a theory of mine, but I feel that good streamers are able to quickly read the momentary Expectation and execute a Reaction appropriately.

>>442080
I can’t speak for other chuubas but my genmates as well as boss know this. It’s perhaps something that you silently understand once analytics come into play. An unspoken, silent agreement to “stay ignorant” perhaps.

[Anonymous No.]

>>442587
Thank you for explaining! Now I feel like less of a conspiracy theorist.

[Anonymous No.]

>>442587
That theory of yours sounds solid actually, and it would likely lead to the best points in the stream
Theres the issue of the inbetween parts though leading up to these points where you gotta keep the audience engaged and interested mostly via talking or minor reactions
That's the part I gotta try get good at. Apparently according to some comedians I've watched, analyzing comedies is actually a good way to learn humour. I'm only just remembering now but ages ago I was under that recommendation going through Seinfield but forgot to continue after a few episodes. Will likely go back an do it again if I have the time.
Your first theory sounds like it isn't that hard to learn desu, it would just take time. Most new chuubas personality and traits/memes only fill in after about a month and they and the audience both seem to come to know what each other are expecting from each other then. All you gotta learn is to react appropriately, and fast

If you haven't debuted yet, just take it easy. Leave everything for 2 days and then come back to it after resting. Going too hard into something can burn you up that quickly.
Play some vidya, watch a movie, talk with friends and then go back to whatever you were doing before. It's not a race, after all.
If you already debuted, then just postpone your schedule a bit. Be sure to let your audience know that, though.

As someone who's kinda been in the same boat, consider your health a possibility
You might be lacking certain nutrients, not be active enough, over/under sleeping etc.
I noticed I was phasing out, unfocused and tired just a moment ago while working despite getting good sleep and it being the middle of the day. I just lifted the blinds and opened the window to get hit with natural sunlight and I'm suddenly alert and focused as my body gets hit with the realization its the up & attem time of day my brain knew only be checking the clock
A lot of people seem to forget that the mind and the body are one in the same, just the brains a subset of the body like any other organ, and treat it like an apparent issue with one is separate from the rest

Unless there's some unreliability with youtube's analytics it would appear HoloSingerEN is going through the first pass of auditions (probably just finished within the last 24 hours). I'm basing this from the additional view my unlisted 5 minute speech within the last 48 hours. I hold no delusions about passing, but trying out each time has been kinda fun.

>>443581
I've been there before. I did absolutely nothing with my life for about 10 years. I was so burnt out and desensitized I was doing everything without thinking anymore, and whenever I thought about anything, I was unable to leave bed because I didn't feel like trying anymore.

It's a really difficult climb to get out of that hole, but you can do it.
What I did was getting a job at a 7-11 as a cashier, not because it was the best job I could find, but because I wanted a place where I could interact with different people every day. I wanted to change the routine.
I don't say you should quit your current job right now, if you have one, but you could try to change your schedule if you're able, or stop trying to learn so many things at once. I once tried to learn how to use Audacity and Blender at the same time and I ended up learning nothing.

Give a spin to your daily routine. Get a gym pass, go fishing, watch the entire content of a youtube channel or adopt a cat. But don't oveewhelm yourself, either. Only one or two things at the time are good enough. Take it easy, but fall into a routine too often, or you'll go back to the hole.
Good luck with the hustle, buddy.

I think it's the best example of creativity and adaptability on this whole market I've ever seen. During this whole week, people rushed to suscribe to her channel just to see if the ending of her saga would happen at 1M subs, and now everyone's on the edge of their seats,all eyes on her, waiting impatiently for the delivery of her Magnum Opus.
It's a genius move. It's a magnificent move. It's the antithesis of the Haachama character and it subverts your expectations so hard it could only come from the mind of a rusemaster.

Sounds like you're going up a bit too high with the voice imo
Probably wouldn't be maintainable, and your lack of mastery of the voice might annoy some viewers
I recommend bringing it a bit closer to your natural voice where you have more control and an easier time
People will be watching primarily for you afterall, not the voice or character although they do play significant roles, so don't be worried about diluting your character a bit to make stuff easier
That or practice I guess, you just seemed a bit monotone in those clips whereas the original girl had some more emotion/variance with smoother delivery

You might be lacking vitamin D. The body needs sunlight to hit the skin to produce vitamin D, otherwise we get lethargic and depressed. Understandable with all the covid quarantine for people to not get out and get some fresh air and sunlight.
You should get some vitamin D supplements (preferably from food and not actual pills), eat well, rest well and exercise a bit. The endorphines from working out help a lot and heighten the senses.

How do you go about "networking" pre debut to actually get a following to actually be there for the debut? The only thing I see these people on twitter doing is having their avatar revealed bit by bit for follower count, and then retweeting every chuuba they know. This seems like a shitty way to shill yourself in my eyes
The only real thing I can think of doing which doesn't actually give you followers but just debut watchers is posting yourself in /wvt/ and the vtuber reddit a couple hours before

I want to say Fubuki because I want to have even a shred of the massive amount of compassion and love for all Vtubers she has, but I think having the calm but very obviously otaku nature of Yashiro and just making references to rose-tinted memories of old games and anime sounds pretty great.

>Also question for vocally talented friends: Are singing lessons worth it or are you better off learning them through exercises?
Not trying to be a vtuber (>male and personality of a boring rock), but saw this thread bumped and I can answer this (used to be a tenor soloist in a university choir):
Yes, absolutely, vocal coaching can pay off, if with someone who actually knows what the fuck they're teaching. There are a lot of physical aspects to it that you don't realize (breath control, posture, how to form certain notes or sounds) that a good coach can teach you or correct if you're doing it wrong. Without one, you may be a polish-able gem, but it'll be very difficult to get the most out of your capability just self-training, same as with instrument playing. If no one ever tells you you're doing something wrong, and especially if they don't tell you how to fix it, you'll stay fucked up.

[Anonymous No.]

>>455233
Good points. I've noticed plenty of people that self teach themselves different skills and seem to do fine, so was curious if singing was one of those skills that can just be worked on. Did you do vocal training, and how long would you say it takes for someone's voice to "become good"?
>>455174
Also helpful. Do you practice singing with your sister or do you do something else to train yourself?

[Anonymous No.]

>>455376
Nah, I'm a complete amateur and mostly keep it to myself, occasionally lending my voice to [board] sings projects.

Choirfag again.
>was curious if singing was one of those skills that can just be worked on.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying you have to throw money at some coach in order to just do scales or practice register shifts, you can do those at home. And I certainly am not claiming there's no such thing as talented amateurs (using that phrasing just to define whether they're trained or not).
>Did you do vocal training,
Yes, but was decent-enough to join the choir in the first place just through self-training. My coaching was basically just generic group sessions (which can be more beneficial than you might think), then when I auditioned for and got soloist I started getting personal lessons that were more focused on my unique voice and traits.
>and how long would you say it takes for someone's voice to "become good"?
This is super down-to-the-individual. I believe 80%+ of the human population probably has it in them to be at least choir tier in their singing, given enough training and practice - truly tone-deaf, in the literal sense, individuals are the unfortunate exceptions. That said, it basically depends on how good your natural voice is. Some people are blessed with smooth voices, or great pitch/tone control, and it just comes naturally. They need minimal coaching to get to peak performance. Others can develop those skills with time and practice, and targeted attacks on individual issues, one at a time, solving this shortcoming or that one with specific exercises until it's suppressed.

Seriously helpful stuff anons, thank you. Just had an idea brewing in my head and was wondering about how "far" I should take it so to say. Whether it ends up being a long-term or short-term project depends entirely on my skill from here on out it seems.

Thanks again anons!

Yeah, it is a bit hard to maintain. What I'm essentially doing is pulling back my pharynx in order to try and modify my voice as much as possible (i don't know what the name of the attribute is that i'm changing since I'm just messing around). I'm not actually trying to play a character like this normally but I did want to have a couple spare voices ready to go in case I want to imitate other characters talking just off-screen in a pinch.
This is me singing the same verse with my normal voice
https://vocaroo.com/1oaq7UT6AT8v
And then me singing another verse in the same song with my head voice, but without pulling back my pharynx
https://voca.ro/1cnGEgMWHvwi
This is my rough Tiny Tim impression to show the opposite thing which is pushing the pharynx out. I'm not sure what I can use this for other than impersonating Mickey Mouse though which I'm not sure I'll really find use for.
https://voca.ro/1mlO8rt9vQGJ
One issue I've run into is that if I just talk conversationally in any given voice I have a subtle persistent accent on the pronunciation of consonants that kind of tips off that it's the same person.

>>455676
Choirfag once more: if it's singing-related, good for you. Hope it works out.

Backhanded advice: friends and family all insisting you sound really good != you are ready to impress strangers... Yet. Usually, most people in that boat, the "best person in the karaoke booth" guy, IS fundamentally good, as I was saying above, but that doesn't necessarily mean you're ready to give a performance. Not trying to say that you should give up hope if this is the case, like I said I genuinely believe the majority of people can in fact carry a tune, just wanna temper expectations.

Question if you or any other musical anons know, what are the type of musical/singing training facilities you should look for? Are online lessons just as fine if you've got a decent mic, and if so do you perhaps know some sites to look for these online singing teachers?
The only places I can find in my city that teaches singing seems entirely geared and advertised for children, and you can only find that they do accept older people in the Q&A but with no further information which makes me a bit afraid to even try with them

I really can't tell you much specifically because all I'd be able to say is "go to the music department of [university] and sign up for classes with [professor]". And she probably doesn't even work there anymore, it's been... Fuck me, ten years.
I DO know, having seen them in related video rabbit holes, that there are online vocal coaches, I've sometimes watched their videos reacting to some big performance by a youtuber and critiquing it. As memory serves, most of them either have their own websites, or are on fiverr or some other gig job sites. I imagine they'd be able to provide decent feedback, provided you have a good mic, but it's just one of those things that somehow works better in a face-to-face interaction. Can't really explain it. Maybe it's different, or different people can get more out of it.

Samefagging, just look up "vocal coach reacts to" on YouTube to see what I mean. I can't offer any vouching for anyone in particular, because I haven't used any of them, but if you watch their content you'll see how specific they get in talking about mouth movement, breath control, etc., subtle shit you might not ever realize you are doing right or wrong. And yes, of course, they shill their courses, probably overpriced, but desu I got it for free, most coaches do in fact expect a decent rate for their job. Whether they are good or not is not really something you'd know till you participated, but if I had to start all over again I'd probably "shop around" to get a feel for how generic or detailed they are in those critiques on YT to see whether they're actually good.

What's the feasibility in creating a VTuber persona that's based on the fandom of another VTuber? And then mass-producing that to have a gaggle of VTuber "fansonas"?

Like how Haatons are little piggies and the Onigiryaa are prisoners with riceballs for heads; essentially the VTuber persona or avatar would be one of those with an 'identifying mark', the way a JRPG has a typical mob monster but gives it a minor trait (a hat, a scar, a different colour, etc).

And then you'd just have group streams made up of fans.

Given Nijisanji and some other VTubers don't necessarily limit themselves to strictly human/humanoid appearances either (Debi, for example), I can see some merit or creativity going into a cute icon/avatar that relies more on facial expression that body movement.

Yes, there are, but unless you have a fully-isolated studio setup that you can analyze your own voice perfectly (and even then, it's subject to your own biases), you wouldn't be able to pick out any mistakes you're making.
And that's completely ignoring that having a coach would solve the biggest issue with working on a skill, I.e. having a detached observer with no incentive to make you feel good (being your friend, etc.) able to provide feedback on your ability. I promise I'm not trying to say "you can't be a good singer without coaching", I realize that paying the money to have someone train you might be a steep investment for most and would never claim you HAVE to do it... But even some of the best superstar singers in the world have coaches, that should tell you something.

[Anonymous No.]

>>461954
you're not wrong, but i make music for a living. i'm also not saying a coach will not help, but i already have no incentive to make myself feel good regarding my work (i am my own worst critic), so there is no real problem on that department.

>>461894
If you're good enough to be a compelling watch even with zero interaction, you'd be competing professionally. As you're NOT competing professionally and instead wondering about becoming a streamer, I can assure you that you are not nearly as good as you'd need to be to draw an audience willing to watch someone else play vidya.

[Anonymous No.]

>>462018
Then we're arguing the same fundamental point. Also, if you're the guy saying "you can get lessons from YT", great, but when I ranted and raved a couple hours ago about how much a coach would help, it was at/for the person asking if he should get a coach, as presumably he didn't know enough about vocal training to make that decision.
A person who is at the point where they're thinking "what even is the point of a coach" probably is NOT capable of self-critique, not on the level that would be necessary to identify specific issues.

then debut?

point is, vtubing is still the same thing as standard face cam streaming. you are literally the entertainer, only with an anime face instead of your real face. if you're not entertaining to watch, no one is going to watch you. at best, your audience will just see the png as your channel's mascot or something. at worst, no one will watch it because it's nothing but random, no commentary gameplay.

If you go too bara on it, it might look like Sett from League of Legends with a green palette. You could probably get away with the same frame, but more toned, maybe a little bit buffer, full ottermode, the usual body of aerial wrestlers, like Rey Mysterio or Sin Cara.

I was talking this image as a reference for the body of my character, but it was too Young for me, so I ended up using Eugen's body from the same game, instead.
You might be able to use it as a reference, though.

Haachama just took her viewers on a month long "psychological horror" lore event to debut the release of her new model's hair style. she did this by dropping scripted clips, doing unique teasers in the middle of her streams, etc.

trying to replicate that as a facecam streamer would be pretty cringe and come off as a "i'm very edgy" type stuff. so you just gotta look at what the medium of being a vtuber lets you do that you wouldn't be able to with a standard face cam.

one of the easier ways to get people to notice you, unfortunately, seems to be shilling yourself on twitter and following people who seem to follow back others. from there, getting retweeted by people with bigger followings than you gets a lot more eyes on your stuff.
twitch itself is nice to stream on because even though a lot of people shit on raid culture, it can really help streamers hit bigger numbers faster than what i feel i'd be able to get through youtube. also from what i've experienced, twitch is better integrated into reddit than youtube livestreams and so that also helps with people seeing your stuff.
i also only had 6 subs on youtube at the time so if i was gonna switch at any point it might as well be at the start. i'm still gonna use the youtube channel to upload the vods and probably to make highlight clips

I'm a male and have been randomly told by some people when I start speaking my voice sounds incredibly deep and relaxing, that I'm like an audio-book narrator or just told that I sound like I could start voicing anime like Jojo shit. It's not always consistent so I do need some VA practice though
Thing is I'm also incredibly quiet and often think I'm speaking way louder than I am and act quite reserved, shy or just like a sperg. I kind of wanna be an inspirational active somewhat idol(Mori) like chuuba that gets people hype and creative but think that would take many months of streaming to begin to resemble

Can't tell if this is bait or if you're just looking for excuses not to try being a Vtuber anon. There are plenty of Vtubers that can't sing, lots of them are fairly popular too. Also, unless it's specifically for a karoke stream fans won't give a shit if you can't sing since they'll be coming to watch you entertain them with gameplay/commentary/whatever content you focus on. Even if songs are a major factor, there are plenty of Popular Vtubers that can't sing well or at all.

I'm just thinking that I want to start streaming again (stopped in 2012), and I want to pick up a vtuber avatar to adapt to the changing times and modernize.
Mic only streams of a decade ago only go so far nowadays. I've have a face for radio, and so facecams never were on the table to begin with. I was just thinking that a vtuber avatar might be up my alley to circumvent that.
I figured the easiest way to get back into the streamer game and attract viewers was to sing, as that is seemingly the most popular thing vtubers do. Turns out, I am awful at singing. And it turns out I'm wrong about the singing as a gimmick, too, given the knowledge you just dropped on me in your post.

I just am thinking about the "bigger picture" of how being a chuuba is more of a full-fledged entertainer gig, and as cliche as it is I do kinda wanna pull the "whoa, he can do THAT???" stunt, as my speaking voice is radically different from my singing voice.
>>492441
I'm still in the preliminary stages of actually doing this, which is a fancy way of saying no, I don't have any specific character design, and definitely don't have the EPIC KING VIDEO WOW art for my character that doesn't exist. Is it really necessary? It's part of the gimmick, but I'd be far from the ONLY person who hasn't had art for it. not to mention if I get enough positive feedback I might luck out with an artfag that can do it, seems like there are some pretty niche/small chuubas with King covers who got a video, if the 48-cover version is anything to go by.

Sorry but no. I'm all about blind confidence. It's gonna stand on its own on whatever day I post it, and if it turns out I'm filled with delusions of grandeur I'll just shrug my shoulders and carry on with my "points for trying" reaction.

The only downside is you need a soothing, low pitched demonic voice and a gentle heart like him (for that gap moe).

[Anonymous No.]

>>511647
If you're male, make the most feminine high-pitched voice that you can realistically pull off for hours in a row, and either play a babiniku "female" or a trap character. If you're female, make the most deep-pitched sexy mature lady voice you can do and become the EN Ange Katrina. Basically, take advantage of your unusually high/low voice to play a character that most people of your gender can never hope to achieve.

[idol hopeful !btr76hqMa6 No.]

>>512101
That's pretty interesting. I might take the EN Ange Katrina route myself since I like her a lot. My voice is naturally deeper than most, and I've heard some people call my voice "ikemen." Now how do I transition that from a sexy bishounen to a mature lady, hah.

It's part of the "whole package". Do you HAVE to be able to sing? No, but most Holos can, with only a few exceptions (those with weird voices but they make it part of their character, and Ame and Noel for examples of "are actually trying but just can't sing").
Think of it the same as applying for any other job, being able to tick as many boxes as you can is a great boon to your application.

This is not just "sounds slightly off" but she is struggling to make it entertaining and that's all what matters.
You don't need to draw good as long as it's memorable and entertaining to watch. You don't need to be good at games either if you manage to make it fun to watch.
Being a vtuber is being an entertainer at heart. You shouldn't go on this path if you think you can't commit to it.

[Anonymous No.]

>>518621
Assuming you're >>490501, or someone in the same place at least, I have to concur with >>519682. It seems like you're just looking for reasons to doubt yourself. Whether those doubts are well founded or not is irrelevant. Confidence > actual talent. If you just keep fishing for "oh poor me I'm so bad don't you guys agree how bad I am?", then you're setting yourself up for failure.
It's like, so fucking what if you aren't any good at X or Y or Z? Do you wanna be an entertainer or not? If so, then you'll do it because YOU want to. There's very little a new chuuba can do that isn't already a niche filled by someone else, so the question is no longer about giving people what they want, but whether you just have enough fun with it that people tune in to watch you enjoy yourself.

Half of this list, specifically the vanity/compensation related ones (how much monies can I get, will I get e-validation, will people like me) are bullshit. I'm not much for screeching about gatekeeping, and am as viciously capitalistic as any hamburger, but this "you can't do something you enjoy unless there's an ulterior motive" mentality is cancer. Unless you're specifically saying that people asking those sorts of questions of the process before they even start probably are better off skipping it in the first place, in which case I guess I agree.

And being able to sell the rrat that you are "just having fun bro" is exactly what I meant when I talked at length about people enjoying watching you enjoy yourself, rather than you needing to fill some sort of specific niche or demand.

>Can I afford it?
yes
>Is my time worth it?
i have so much free time after work that i don't think it matters. i'd be doing the same things off stream anyway
>Will this result in financial profit?
i have a job so this doesn't matter to me
>How likely am I to get screwed over?
i went in expecting nothing so i don't see how i can get screwed over
>Does this require interacting with other people?
not necessarily but it can be nice. a lot of the vtubers i see on twitter can be really embarrassing and hesitate to interact with them beyond replying to their tweets
>Do I have people who I can have constructive discussions with regarding this?
this thread more or less
>Are these constructive discussions in public or private?
this counts as public i'd assume but if i wanted private discussions i have people i could talk to for that

no???
>Am I capable of defending myself?
yes

>Do I have to do this every day to just stay on track?
streaming specifically? no. but i guess keeping up with social media is mildly important
>Is this tiring?
i'm honestly more excited day by day as i've been doing this
>Am I getting burnout?
i've only started but sometimes i question myself but also when i stream i remember that i enjoy it a lot so probably no
>Do I get anything besides money after stopping?
i don't get money for doing this in the first place so this one does not matter to me
>Am I happy with what I've done?
very
>Did any of this matter?
nothing really matters. but when people tell me that they enjoyed my stream or found what i've said to be valuable i think i can feel a sense of fulfillment

I've finalised my sketches for a character sheet and I'm finally confident enough to move onto starting the 3D modelling side of things. It's like the more I work on this the more excited I get. Watching all the pieces slowly come together has me even more excited for some of the bigger things I have planned. If I'm not directly working on something for my Vtubing, I'm coming up with ideas and details for streams and content while I'm taking a break playing vidya, or ironing out character lore to make sure I can maintain kayfabe. Creating all of this and watching it come to life is the best.

You don't have to apply with a model. Unless you just want portfolio content I guess. Make content ASAP

Gotcha will do! Quick question where it says "roughly 5 minute long in character self intro" if I did a few quick drawings and tried to do something similar to Kiaras debut stream where there was some lore splashed in, you think thatd be allowed/what they're looking for in their application?

For example, Mori would answer:
>Rapping and writing lyrics in English and Japanese, composing music, drawing and graphic design, etc.
and
>Releasing an album of original songs as soon as I debut in front of the entire Hololive audience, etc.

It's your 5 minute debut. They want to find out what you can do, and what are your ambitions. In the form, you tell them, in the video, you show them. If you can't talk to your monitor for 5 minutes, you can't do it for 2 hours every day. Your would-be viewers could you give you a chance, and test you for even fewer than 5 minutes.
