>>48861164https://kawaentertainment.com/about/>What do you mean by ‘Adoption Agency’?Most VTuber agencies provide new identities and models to their talents, which has two unfortunate side effects - The talent would have to retire their old character, and the agency would own the IP of the new character. Instead of forcing our talents to give up their personalized identities, we have hired them as-is. The talents retain all ownership of their IP.
>What are Kawa’s goals?We're here to support our talents as much as possible while not getting in the way. They know their content best; we aren't here to change that.
>How much control do you exert over your talents?Each talent determines exactly how much management they want. Some want in-depth management over schedules and stream improvements, some want us to be almost entirely hands-off except for large events like sponsorships or song covers. We will never make a talent do or say anything they don't want to.
>Where can I see your merchandise offerings?Our in-stock and preorder-only products are available under Merch, or at
merch.kawaentertainment.com.
>Are talents paid when merchandise is sold?Yes, a percentage of each sale goes directly to the talent. The rates differ from product to product.
>Will talents get a new model? What happens to my old identity/model?You will continue with your old identity/model. We plan to "adopt" our talents. Our lower royalty shares force us to focus on what's essential, and for us, that's evolving our talent's current brand. If it isn't broken, don't fix it. However, if the talent requires a new model, we plan to work out a custom deal with them on a case-by-case basis.
>Since you're adopting the model, what does that mean for Intellectual Property/copyright?The Intellectual Property (copyright) for the talent's model stays entirely with them even upon signing with us. You license us your image/model to make merch, advertise, etc. However, your model is still yours at the end of the day, even if we part ways.
>Will you help create custom tools to help make my streams more engaging?Yes. We will create custom in-house tools and programs to serve our talent better. So they can focus on streaming.
>Will you help acquire new assets to use for streams?Yes. Our goal is to help be a buffer for our talents and reduce the amount of business-orientated stuff they do.
>Will you help with sponsorships?Yes. We plan to get our talents sponsors on their request.
>Will you help with merchandise?Yes. We will create custom merchandise for each talent. If the talent is interested in more, we are also happy to discuss that with them.
>Will you help with market research?Yes. On no less than a monthly basis, we will look into current trends and use our connections to consult each Talent signed.
