/auds/ Thread # 14

Question of the Thread: What are your key performance indicators? What metrics will you look at to measure your progress and growth (whatever it may look like for you)? Is it followers or subscriber numbers? Amount of fanart? Reducing the amount of "ums" and "uhs" during a stream?

What is /auds/?
A thread where we discuss our vtuber aspirations! Where it's agency-based or independent, let's help each other grow and make it as entertainers. Indies are welcome to join, but shill responsibility. Share what knowledge, insights, what works/doesn't work for you.

FAQ:
Do I need an expensive rigged Live2D model to be a vtuber?
You do not! A simple .png avatar can be enough to get started.

Where can I learn how to Live2D rig avatars?
Brian Tsui of Iron Vertex has many tutorials available on his youtube channel

Static 2D avatars - a simple png in the corner of your screen is plenty!
