>What is /asp/?
/asp/ is a thread for Vtubers to give and receive advice related to Vtubing.

>Should I stream on Twitch or YouTube?
Most people would recommend against streaming on YouTube if you don't have an established subscriber base for making videos. Also consider multistreaming, it's free but resource intensive.

>Is there an audience for X?
Would you watch someone do X?
Is someone already doing X?

>What video editor should I use for editing clips?
DaVinci Resolve, Kdenlive, & CapCut if you don't feel like spending money or pirating; otherwise, use Vegas Pro or Premiere.

>I have a question, is it okay to ask? Will I get real feedback?
Ask away! If no one responds, try asking again at a later time.

>I see the rentry! How do I join?
Just DM letmebeyouranchor on discord to join! Is an opt-in and you can always request to be removed later on!

This is why I got Skeb instead. They have a set of rules to follow
>>
>>108340756
You can't earn money with a skeb model by default. By skeb's tos the artist owns the copyright on anything they deliver.
>>
there's nothing wrong with using ai for a concept
using it for a finished product or passing it off as genuine artwork is the only issue.

Yes it sucks that data is scraped and fed into databases for AI models but no amount of bitching is gonna stop that.

I'm surprised prompters have the patience to deal with something as nuanced and inaccurate as AI if they don't usually have the patience to learn a new skillset like drawing.

There’s often something just ever so slightly ‘off’ about it though, idk what it is. Especially Indonesians. They draw pretty alright, it’ll be 95% there for typical anime style but then something will be weird about it like the eyes are too far apart or the chin is a literal spike.

>bro the artist, who you are hiring to draw for you because you don't have the skills to draw, would prefer you actually provide a completed piece that lacks any of your intentions and themes so that they have nothing to go off

Retard who doesn't know how to draw. It's infinitely more valuable to be provided hand drawn things even if they are artistically inept because when someone has to hand draw something, it reveals to you what they value and what they want because that's the part of the drawing that they will emphasize the most even subconsciously. They have to make deliberate choices which informs of you the things they want to see most and what they don't care about as much. Giving an artist AI slop tells them nothing, you are genuinely better off giving the artist the actual prompt you wrote into the slop generator because it will actually show your intentions and what you want to see.

Anime isn’t a unified thing. Or rather there are different styles primarily influenced by foundational artists or works that become genre defining. It’s always evolving. If you want a specific style either give an anime/manga as reference or find someone already drawing in that style.
>>
>>108341142
>it reveals to you what they value and what they want because that's the part of the drawing that they will emphasize the most even subconsciously
I can't draw and that's specifically why I would hate if someone did this. Don't think my inept scribbles mean anything, just because I fuck up the shape of something doesn't mean I value it, it means I fucked it up, oh god, please fix it
>>
>>108340660
Sounds like you are just shit at personal judgment. Art is probably one of the most free markets in the world with nearly no barriers to entry other than the internet, a drawing device of some sort and time. Some CalArts retard who spends thousands a year on tools and pretentious exhibits still has to compete with Chang Chong who completes rendered masterpieces in 2 hours because that's how long the electricity stays on at night.
>>
>>108341176
Then don't draw then. Use a mood board. Pick out things you like, then tell the artist what you like about them. It's literally first grade show and tell.

the standard is sending the artist a drive with the references, and explain what do you want

>>108341225
AI puritans are intolerable. You sell the issue entirely incorrectly. Instead of emphasizing your handicrafts’ value you demonize the consumers of alternatives. Here’s a fact. Every career before or after has been or will be replaced by technology. You didn’t stop the cotton gin and you won’t stop AI generative art. Ostracizing those who use AI art only makes you look like an outdated Luddite fighting against the use of power tools. You are selfish in your stand against this one use case and self absorbed regarding the value in it. Vtubers will be freed from your tyranny sooner than later and your attitude will drive them further towards technologies which don’t demonize them like you do.

>>108341328
They absolutely do? They glaze and watermark their work so it poisons AI training and they almost always have a disclaimer against ai use in their bios.
>>
>>108341310
Until cover openly uses an generative ai model it won't be accepted in the broader space.
>>
>>108341377
There's no way in hell Cover would ever openly use AI. They would burn bridges with nearly every single artist they work with and the mama/papa relationships between vtubers and artists is way stronger in the JP side.

Ill-begotten dubs. Of course there is value in the artwork of a humans’ hands that cannot be found in automation. Handcrafted goods often show more care and quality than mass produced ones. The highest levels vtubing will hold the highest quality of vtubing assets. But it’s asinine to demonize users of a growing technology instead of emphasizing the special value of your own goods.

>>108341478
Market demographics change with time. Which age group currently has the most time or expendable income to watch a vtuber stream?
>>
>>108341478
Because old men like watching little girls place the games they like.
>>
>>108341457
And cover directly influences the expectations in vtubing culture. Everyone wants to be just like their oshi in Hololive.

Did you morally object to the cotton gin? Did you morally object to motorized vehicles replacing horse carriages? This isn’t a moral issue and it’s nothing new. Technology will always prevail because it outcompetes what came before. I’m actually trying to help artists designing vtubers here by telling them what historical patterns and behaviors have been viable in other markets that have been automated.
>>
>>108341550
It's not comparable. Your argument is the idea between analog drawing vs digital. Your comparison would be cotton vs synthetic fibers. The only difference is synthetic fiber people aren't going around lauding the death of cotton as a material.

>>
>>108341589
>false equivalence fallacy
>analog vs digital
Anon I don’t know of many vtuber artists drawing with analog materials. It seems like it would make the work of cutting for models much harder if they drew them on paper with analog materials. In my experience the art has been almost entirely digital. The bases of my argument are perfectly equivocal. The creation of a piece of digital artwork and the creation of a piece of digital artwork. The tools use may differ. The effort by human hands may differ. But the product of a vtuber design remains the same whether it is drawn on a drawing pad by a human hand or generated by an AI model.

I'm obsessed with tranny penis. I spiritually break men I like and force them to transition because I'm intimidated by them. I need to weaken them so they're non threatening and more susceptible to my manipulation but I'm also repulsed by them so I schizo the fuck out of them for transitioning. I'm caught between a constant back and forth in my own head. I've done this to a few /asp/ies and don't know what's wrong with me.

retro blew up because most people in vtubing know fuckall about computers and stream with laptops they got for christmas.
I ain't hating do whatever you gotta do but emulation is way easier to stream than trying to play newer games at a stable framerate.
>>
>>108341930
It's not a fetish. I need to weaken them so they're nonthreatening. If they're broken they will like me more because they won't see me for what I am. I need them to suffer so they don't know how bad I am but this makes me disrespect them and hate them because they wouldn't want me if I didn't manipulate them. I deserve to die and I hate myself.

God you're such a fucking pseud scege. Literally think about this for like 5 seconds and you can think of at least 10 examples of things which cannot be prevented but people of good moral character shouldn't engage in. Fucking retard.

I've been streaming on twitch for half a year and barely have a dozen followers. Is this normal for a male PNGtuber?

>>108342930
ugly voice?

>>108342942
so-so average voice. which probably isn't much better. maybe an ugly voice would get more attention?

That kinda tracks I guess.
>>
>>108343144
Yes.

>>108342998
Network with who? Seems most small creators are either just as clueless as I am, or fake bot accounts. Also what would a new vtuber have to offer?
>>
>>108343189
Most small streamers are down to boost each other for a bit of mutualism. Just find people who do similar things that you do and hang out/interact with them.
>>
>>108343189
>Also what would a new vtuber have to offer?
Why do you think this way? Are you actually that autistic?
Why would any large creator network with a smaller one then?
Jesus Christ some of you are in a hell of your own making
>>
>>108343189
Okay, so if you're trying you should be able to immediately tell me these things:

What is your stream schedule? I want exact times and I expect these to be every week and at least 3 times a week for at least a total of 12 hours.

Who is you target audience? I want gender, age range, education level, relationship status, sexuality, general interests.

How do you know that target audience exists?

What are your skills and strengths? Be very specific, like "I am good at speed painting mecha in water color" and "I have a unique accent and timbre".

What is your content creation schedule? I.e. how much are you uploading and to where. I would expect nothing less than at least 1 tweet per day not including go-live tweets, a short per week, some form of other long form content every month at a minimum.

What is your brand? I.e., if I just tuned into any random single minute of your stream, what should I expect to see?

Most importantly of all, why would anyone actually want to watch you?

If you can't IMMEDIATELY answer these, you have a problem. I don't mean, you spend 1 minute thinking, I mean it shouldn't even be a second delay.

This is the male vtuber trap. Girls are naturally advantaged in vtubing, everybody knows it, nobody wants to acknowledge it, and whining about it won’t help you. To be a male vtuber is probably an order of magnitude more difficult (not hyperbole, it’s probably ten times easier as a female) and so to achieve anything close to a female vtuber, you need to put in exponentially more effort. So many guys fall into the pit of “Once I get an audience I’ll do X and Y” because they are using the female vtuber blueprint.


Girls can just stream and kind of just trip into success if they’re reasonably lucky. Males can’t do that but so many guys watch female vtubers and try to either consciously or subconsciously copy them without realising you’re not playing the same game as them. You can’t use their rules. As a male vtuber you fucking need a plan, you need to understand your audience, you need to FUCKING WORK if you want to be successful. Waiting around for the luck bus to finally hit you won’t work.

>>
>>108343189
Networking here is hit and miss, you’ll find people who’ve already got their boost from asp and have pulled the ladder up while others are truly NGMI, best bet is to just watch vtubers in categories you want to work in. (Like retro if you plan on playing retro games) and interact with them while live or on twitter, watching them live will give you a way better idea of whether or not they’ll actually be a good fit for you to network with and collab with eventually.

I don't know who they are, exactly, nor who they're working for.

It's unfortunate but when we have a schizo lying in wait to spam the thread whenever any new aspies self post then it's understandable nobody would post again.

>>108339025
i know you're probably a tasteless coomer with an untrained eye for character design (or trying to bait some (you)s from here), but this is just straight up terrible. AI aside, the color palette is as safe and boring as it gets with black, white and purple. Her clothes and hairstyle don't communicate anything about her either, there are no textures or shapes to make up for how basic they look, and the lack of any accessories or details doesn't do her any favors either. if you want to be female vtuber n°64837, then this design is perfect for you, otherwise sit down and start writing down better ideas and concepts to work with. if you're too lazy to even do that, you can always pay someone to design a model for you for cheap.

Stream cancelled, throat too sore due to contaminated air

Indie vtubing causes great damage to the human soul with little to no benefit
>>
>>108342930
males have it harder in general in the space, but a good rule of thumb is don't stream stuff that is over saturated if you are bellow 20avg nobody will find you. It's unfair but it's how it works, I get a lot more ppl and even twitch recommending my Chanel than a few months ago.
Work on things you can change maybe improve mic quality or have a consistent schedule, that's what got me to get my boost

i bought a new pc because i got spooked by ram + gpu price changes and my piece of shit tower isn't going to be hanging on long enough to weather the storm
going to buy another customizable model as well, the sen one is cute that came out in the fall

unfortunately customizable vtuber models always require texture edits to not feel entirely washed out by the nature of vtubestudio's color rendering in program

Man, I remember last year... I might've cancelled ten or fifteen streams this same way, and it was not even because of me smoking but because this shitty city has days in which the pollution from fucking random thrash fires all over it, and so far this year seems to be on track to be the exact same shit.
Fucking hell man, I should get a mask like those that we had during covid or something.

>>
>>108347147
Yeah, I don't really enjoy coughing blood, I should just tough it up and do it for le stream plus make a big deal out of it, then some years down the line I also get the benefits of crying out loud about how consuming and corrosive streaming is on the body because I couldn't get one day off due to mental illness masked as productivity (in a hobby, mind you) and get all those pitybucks off of something that I rather self inflicted for the sake of a grind that blah blah blah.
Nah, I prefer to take care; I don't find myself in a rush to live life, to go live, or to do anything of this sort while killing myself in the process because I NEED to keep grinding every day.

I find the $500 - 1k price point really poorly made across the board. The customizable models offer access to better rigging that I find more important than the details of a design being 1:1 accurate.
>>
>>108352726
Didn't you try to get your own model? Why not continue with that through the year(s) if you are scared of wasting money by having someone do a poor job when rigging?
>>
>>108348171
So you're saying I'm poor? Just because I'm not as well off as you doesn't mean you can hold yourself above me.
Hey! Everyone! This store discriminates against the poor!
>>
>>108352785
Yes, I'd like to eventually buy (or make) a custom model, but it probably won't be in the sub-1k price point. I'm not scared of wasting money so much as I wouldn't want to stream with art and rigging I wasn't happy with just for the sake of being more accurate to a given design. A lot of models are quite fugly, I fear!
