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

look for someone offering character design commissions and provide them as much information as possible. mood board, frankenstien a composite image of bits and pieces you want, written descriptions, etc. ask the artist what they need from you.

>>1908264
you don't avoid it, just embrace it. prepare for never getting a formal rejection and just move on. you should be getting right back to your content creating reps tomorrow after submitting the audition application.

Usually a sign that VTubing is not for you. If you can't come up with your own design, then how are you going to entertain anyone watching you?

False equivalency. A VTuber model design is, for all intents and purposes, your brand. If you cannot create or design your brand on your own (i.e. you don't even make ref sheets and the like, instead just throwing money at artists) then it's not YOUR brand. It's just a brand you're attaching your name to. A brand that will decide the type of person that watches you, the kind of fanart you'll get, and a billion more factors. If you can't put in the effort for that, then you aren't going to put in effort in your content.

>>1908319 is also correct. Money will not "fix" your creative difficulties.

I have a character in mind, but no artistic skills or enough disposable income to just buy a model outright, so I was thinking about commissioning an artist for a decent-looking PNG to use while I dip my toes in the water. Are there any tips for finding and commissioning an artist, specifically one that can draw a Mazinger or Getter-looking dude? I've never commissioned an artist before.

In addition, I'm struggling a bit to come up with actual things to stream. Besides gaming itself, currently I have: Japanese language study (not Duolingo), karaoke streams, and zatsudans set over slower RPG games I might want to play. I don't really have much else in the way of talents. I like creative writing; would it be at all interesting to stream myself writing a short story, maybe incorporating CYOA elements like a quest?

Always try this using DeepL. It may still get lost in translation, but just posting said translation and not the original English as well is inviting problems.

if you're doing it through Skeb, they explicitly say NOT to do your own translations.
if you're doing it through any other means, probably? DeepL is the best translator, toss it back and forth to make sure it's translating you correctly and the message isn't lost.

>>1908604

as for the creative writing thing, slugma did a fanfiction writing stream a while back and apparently it was pretty fun and silly. doable if you have enough viewers to bounce off of mad libs style.

If they didn't want to waste time on late submissions, they wouldn't have kept the window this long. A lot of earlier submissions may get weeded out too. They probably only give the first 0:30-1:00 of each audition a shot before they decide if you're worth keeping in the pile or not. Hope that's some consolation to procrastinators/people who spent too long on theirs.

There is nothing wrong with that to be quite honest. If they can somehow deliver something, soulless content still sells if marketed well enough.

Looking for some ideas.

My rigger gives each of their clients a free small "gift" with the rig, which seems to mean a very small animation or something similar.
Do any of you have ideas for something I should request? They brought up having my models visor glow which would be cool, but they also mentioned adding angry eyebrows or blushing since a helmeted character is otherwise pretty unexpressive. Something like that.

At this point I feel like I'm getting close to wanting to hire someone just to find me an artist to commission. Shit sucks. How long did it take you all to find an artist you liked? It's annoying because I had plenty of time to do this like... a week ago, and since then shits just a mess.

Something to remember:
They don't choose the handful that is the "best" out of the bunch. They choose a handful that has a good variety and is marketable for what they're looking for.

You could be expertly talented, extremely funny, immediately befriendable, and still, not make it in. Not because you're not good enough, but because they're looking for something different.

It's no different than if two people are on a first date together. One loves to hike and travel and talk to strangers. The other loves to stay home and cook and read by the fire and cultivate close relationships with friends and family. Neither of them are bad people. Neither of them are not good enough. But maybe the homebody wouldn't be comfortable staying in a hostel half a globe away with 12 other people in bunk beds, and maybe the traveler would feel cooped up in the same town every day.

They aren't a good fit for a relationship and the date won't go anywhere. But that doesn't mean that they're doomed in love. They're both appealing and loveable people.

This first date with hololive doesn't define if you're appealing and loveable.

I can't really put in into words, but the professional rig one looks like there's so much soul in their movement. I know it's expected but the difference is pretty big. It's like there's a very big gap between intermediate rigger and professional rigger. While in normal art there's someone inbetween

Was looking through their examples and see an artist in there that has a style that may work for my design idea, sadly commissions are closed. And of course the artist mainly does male hentai, because that's the only real option when you deal with something even slightly muscular.

well, speculation is that Iron Vertex rigging is like $2.5k - $3k. so that on top of whatever character designer you pick costs.

Oh wow, thats more than I thought, though I didn't exactly have a frame of reference. So I guess I should toss $750-$1000 on top of that for design to be safe for a 'top end' full cost.

High high end, like Hololive quality, you are looking at 4K or so. 1K on the art and 3K on the rigging.

Ah. I figure for something like that you'd have to give work examples or something. Some people have pretty specific ideas on art style & design they want, and not all artists are great at those types.

>>1919335
I remember seeing the 5k number tossed around before but haven't heard it mentioned in /auds/ before so I didnt know if pricing had changed. $5000 USD may be a bit outside what I could (sanely) pay for something like that anyway.

>>1919375
Demand has skyrocketed in the past two years. They also have a bunch of different tiers that I assume greatly affect the price.

because that's 5 minutes for an audition, and according to Subaru, there were 1,200 applicants per slot of her gen. that's 6,000 applicants. if they just had 5 minutes and cover watched it all, that'd be 500 hours worth of JUST watching audition tapes.

that's why they had you fill out the rest of the form regarding streaming experience, content creation, etc. so they can just filter out those with less experience off the get go and focus on ones they know are more likely to be better fits.

I actually tried to join the main Live2D discord when I started, but it kicked me out for not passing that 'alt' test thing since I was using a new discord account. I should probably try again though, but I haven't really joined any other discords other than the one I created for myself (mainly so I have a sandbox to test settings).

Haha, I definately have an interesting idea, but unfortunately I wouldn't be willing to commission it for free. Doing it for no money may seem like a steal, but what happens if I explode and you aren't compensated? The legal and social ramifications are also not so great. Even if you never told anyone, someone who lurked this thread might be able to figure out who we both are and similarly drive up contraversy. I think it would be a cool solution for a hobbiest. If someone has a really unique idea, they'd also want to NDA it.

For those that already commissioned separate artist and rigger, who does the cutting of the models? Initial artist or rigger or there's another person that specialize on cutting?

My initial artist charge more than double price to separate my fullbody model into live2d parts along with it's accessories. She said it's because skirt, ribbon, long scarfs, hair, and mantle needs to be redrawn.

Yes, they're called cutters, some riggers also do cutting but there are people that only cut the images for you.

Very likely since everything needs to be in separate layers, not sure if you are paying too much though

the initial artist should be the one who cuts the model. although, they shouldn't be charging you extra unless you asked for it to be made as a live2d model after it was already finished?
the reason its better for the initial artist to do it is so that the artstyle can stay consistent for the areas that have to be drawn under layers. some riggers will do this but they will generally charge extra + can look a little different to the original artwork

Well no. I mean, everyone has to start somewhere. I have about 20 and I just got Twitter a few weeks ago. Still haven't debuted properly yet cause my model's been a clusterfrick of technical difficulties, but I still managed to get some content out.

>I just want to have somebody in chat when I first start.
My advice is gonna be Mori's advice then - do something. Doesn't have to be streaming, doesn't have to be videos even, but it has to be "something."

Cause think of it this way: right now, Twitter is your "chat." The day you joined Twitter was your "debut stream." How many people showed up on that first day? Probably none. But you put yourself out there, and now there's people following you that like what you're about.

How do you get those people to show up for your first actual stream? The same way you got them to show up on Twitter: socializing, networking, being a fun and friendly person, and showing up in their and other people's chats.

And sure, there's always the possibility that only one or two people show up. But once you have one video out, that gets clipped and shared and other people hear about you, and they might make it to your next stream, or the next, or the one after that.

TL;DR - In the wise words of Shia LeBouf, just do it.

Prism Project guy is quite picky - pretty much every girl speaks Japanese/English, cares very strongly about acting as a character over other streaming skills, and asks for you to come up with a lot of 'deep' backstory for your character plus some kind of 'twist' - which is hard to be not cliche

And yet all the debuted girls seem very cliche except for maybe Luto

I think he wants idol like anime girls rather than entertainers like Nijisanji. Think how the Hololive members acted when they first debuted.

If that was truly your goal, you wouldn't be refreshing your viewer count. Direct your focus on content creation. Wringing your hands and finding half baked excuses to give up is going to give you worse whiplash. Because if you decide it's hopeless when you didn't get a view mere hours after deadline, that means your resignation will be proved wrong if you get viewed at all. Which will spark another round of desperate hope and searching for a new way to convince yourself that you're ngmi.

That's exhausting.

There's no way to tell but if they didn't look at any of the earlier videos, no way to know how true it is but we have 3 examples thus far, and looked at a very recent one, best assumption is they didn't start looking until after deadline and will go from newest to oldest.

No way to know. I don't hate myself, no matter what happens I'll keep creating content as I have been.

Is it possible to be a *relatively* successful vtuber without streaming? I don't want to live stream at least not yet because I don't have a good setup for it but I do want to start producing content using my avatar. Will it kill the momentum or could it possibly help for when I do a live debut?

I feel like my content gives off less of a Niji-like feeling to be clear and more of an old Holo-like feeling, so I think I should probably be okay then? I can only speak in basic Japanese though so idk

the whole fucking point is that you can interact in real time with a virtual streamer, if you're not doing that, then you're not a vtuber. might as well just be machinima shit at that point.

No you fucking mongoloid, the point of a "vtuber" is that you are a...

Virtual
Youtuber

Though any streaming/video platform really can fit under that. It doesn't mean "vstreamer", "vcaster", "vcamgirl", "vsportsannouncer", or "vfisherman". Streaming or pre-recorded video doesn't matter, its just content creation that matters. I mean, fuck, pretty sure Ai created the fucking term and she was mostly pre-recorded video. People need to stop coming up with their own super specific idea of what vtuber means. It's really a pretty vague term.

The Tundra Tracker kickstarter is starting in less than 24 hours. It is both 25% smaller and 25% lighter than the new Vive Tracker 3.0. It's battery life is about the same or greatre than the Vive Tracker 3.0. It's price is the same or less than than the Vive Tracker 2.0. The Tundra Tracker also supports connecting all of your trackers via a single dongle as opposed to require a dongle per tracker with the Vive trackers. For early backers on kickstarter you also get a carrying case, straps to attach them to your body, and usb cables which makes it an even better deal. The downside of course is having to wait since first units are expected to ship mid June.

I am kind of tempted to get the 5 trackers option so that I can have full body plus some extra trackers to play around with.

Streaming/gaming/etc. might be where most of the viewers are right now, but the fact that the majority of people think "vtuber = streamer" means you get to be one of the only vtubers grabbing all of the fans of something else.

It worked for Kizuna Ai and it's still working for Miku and the Gorillaz, so. Just my two cents.

Actually went ahead and listened to this to see what all the fuss is about. Firstly, it sounds like your audio has been edited badly (either because of some voice filter or incorrect use of noise reduction) so it already sounds like a not accurate representation of your voice. That being said, if I were to assign you a "character archetype" solely based on this sample, I would give you "middle aged woman", maybe a villain or busy working lady type. If you're actually younger than 40 then I would definitely wonder if you were trans, though a "trans character" is a character archetype just like how "young boy" or "Californian teen girl" is so you could make it work for you.

I'm not saying 4chan doesn't know what real people sound like, but I am saying that we're not much for helping people to sound better either.

I've looked through the english vtuber community and seen more disabled genderfluid otherkin than anyone should ever have to see. But you know how we get less of that? By telling people what they're doing wrong and how to improve.

Calling someone a tranny doesn't change anything. If anything, they fuck off to tumblr and reddit and end up becoming trannies because those are the only people that gave them constructive criticism.

And if you're that scared of being attracted to someone with a penis, simping for people who hide behind pictures of anime girls on the internet is the complete opposite of what you should be doing.

A while ago I said I would type up my advice on running a stream, mainly a twitch stream and from the point of view of a long running moderator. Finally getting around to starting to type it up now. And since I spent most of my time as a mod drinking, I'm good and semi-drunk while I type this for authenticity. Anyone got any questions that pertain to running/moderating a twitch stream that I can incorporate into the document? I already know a bunch of shit I'll have in there regardless but it would be interesting to know what people want to know.

This isn't a "how to stream", its a "how to run a stream", as in managing the community itself. Unless the streamer and/or the mods are incompetent, the mods should be putting in a lot of work.

V-tweeters aren't v-tubers. And I'd rather they run their 0-5 viewer streams in obscurity on twitch than post on 4chan. No matter how you try to spin this, you are just outing yourself as a tranny enabling little homo. You should fuck off back to twitter.

When should someone consider getting a moderator for their chat? Is it realistic to self-moderate even when you reach thousands of subscribers/hundreds of live viewers?

The people on this board should be more focused on actually streaming even once with an audience over 10, rather than getting caught up in the planning and "preparation" which is just glorified procrastination. If you are sitting around planning your stream rather than just going live, you are never going to make it. Chances are, you are never going to make it even if you stream, but 1% chance is still better than 0%.

You gotta watch out because both Twitch and Youtube have community guidelines that say you need to have a handle on your chat to a reasonable degree. If you're big enough to get some attention and people are regularly spamming NIGGER and other shit in your chat, you can get in trouble.

I'll toss that in the document as well since it technically can be a longer answer, but in terms of Twitch, not properly moderating your chat/channel is actually *against TOS*, so if people are posting stuff against TOS and you aren't deleting/banning them, *you* actually can get banned.

>>1961510
Oh obviously, if you have no community to manage then advice on managing a community is rather pointless. However, people should take every opportunity to learn, no matter what.

this. in the context of female voices, if the only female voice you think is "female", and you're not familiar with woman talking in a lower register. it just means that no woman has ever felt safe enough around you to let down their public performance voice. so yeah, hikineets, incels, neckbeards, etc., you're just outing yourselves when you say shit like that.

It's obvious that a bunch of anons are the type that will call any girl with a deeper voice a roastie, etc, but that doesn't change the fact that there are instinctual understanding of the nuances in the human voice that can't be overcome by most trans people. Women will always see their voices become deeper into their 40s/50s (among other changes) due to menopause and that is why you can immediately tell if someone is an older woman on the phone just by voice quality. Me and my female family members have very deep voices for women (we all speak around E3) and yet we have never, ever gotten mistaken for a guy over the phone. Ever. And this is because females have structurally different voiceboxes, face shapes, etc, that change how we use our voice and how our voices resonate and even if we all speak with lower voices, the resonance of our voices are still clearly feminine. And even with our lower voices, we can still comfortably sing up to a C6 without going into a "falsetto" that men would require.

Of course it is, go to any "how to make a female voice" video made for transwomen and the first thing they go over is how men can try to change the placement of their larynx to imitate a female-sounding resonance because that's the key to sounding female more than doing a base "pitch up" of your voice.

there has NEVER been a peer reviewed study that shows humans can do what you're thinking of. a femanon posting with an accent tricked you. you don't have that kind of a "superpower", anon. you need to talk to real people more.

Are you seriously trying to claim that there isn't a study out there checking whether or not people can correctly guess whether a speaker is male or female? That's just about as redundant as making a study to see if nonblind people can guess which of the two people in front of them is ethnically Korean and which one is ethnically Nigerian.

For the femanons out there who posted their voices you all sound fucking fine and like a real woman. Voice acting is a skill like everything else and I don’t want everyone to do that stupid fucking uwu voice anyways.
