Quoted By:
HOLO used to use dancers because the Japanese community closed down in COVID-19.
Japan also restricted the entry of foreigners during that period.
That's around 2020-2022 or so.
During this period, there was a level of peer pressure that any entertainer who became covid-19 would be socially disqualified.
And another point is that it was cheaper in terms of labor resources to have dancers dance than to give HOLO members dance lessons.
So, if covid restrictions are relaxed, members with high income will dance by themselves, and those who cannot call many HOLO members will use dancers.
But now it is different. covid is no longer a concern in Japanese society. Even affected celebrities are not disqualified.
COVID is an idol business model, so the company is again concerned about the fact that the person himself dances.
HOLO members who have a policy that the person dances are happy, and those who do not want to dance are suffering.
The holo live device members include a person with a job experience as a back-up dancer in 1gen [hajime], and for the management, they are a unit that wants to have concerts!
However, there is a mixture of members who do not like idol concerts
2gen is completely an idol concert aspiring unit. We have two people who have big stage experience in idol dance and one who has practiced singing and dancing in an entertainment company since he was a small child. The other one has no concert experience but applied to HOLO because she wanted to dance [Su].
The four members of 2gen are definitely eager to dance themselves, indicating that the current policy of the management is “dance by the members themselves.
I think that Fauna was not comfortable in Holo from the time when the reason of covid's entry restriction to Japan was removed. I think it is from about 2023....
Now niji holo brave neopolte everywhere is based on the principle of dancing by oneself.
Dancing also has a gym training effect on unhealthy vtubers, so some corporate vtubers profess to be doing it instead of fitness!
If a dancer is mentioned in the credits, it is either a back-up dancer, a trainer of dance lessons and a contributor to the concert, or a dance choreographer.
In Japan, artistic dance choreography is copyrighted, so the choreographer may be listed in the credits.
Artistic dances for HOLO's commemorative concert are copyrighted by the choreographer in Japan. Therefore, it is assumed that COVER INC. has paid a dance choreographer to devise the dance choreography.
Back-up dancers, dance trainers, dance choreographers
When we hear the word “dancer”, 4chan imagines a “substitute for a vtuber”, but in reality, substitutes are limited to those who refuse to record the unit part of a song, or when the recording schedule does not allow it.
Perhaps cover company would like to exchange the talent they own in terms of the value of the dance recording.
The hypothesis is that the number of people belonging to the company will not change much, but will be exchanged for members who are interested in dancing.
The hypothesis is that the management's policy is that if the person is not interested in dancing, he/she will graduate and the number of fans he/she has is acceptable to take with him/her. Even if the number of fans that are taken is 10,000 and the number of fans of the new member who are strongly interested in dancing is 3,000.
