Let's talk about schedules. Do you use one? What do you put on it? Do you use the same template every time?

[Anonymous No.]

>>7594643
I use one, and include my Twitter and Twitch on it. I've been using the same template every time so far, but that's because I don't want to have to make more yet. It's useful for me, though I don't know how much people consult it.

If you can’t just push yourself down the water slide (it’s easier than you think once you go past the point of no return), do the opposite of this. Don’t go live, just record yourself doing a stream. Talk to yourself as much as you can, then watch some of it back later and find areas you can improve. Talking to yourself is the hard part of streaming, so going live with dead air doesn’t really practice anything. And you still get footage you can convert into VODs and clips if any of it’s good.
Also, I’d advise setting yourself a hard date for starting to go live, unmuted, and then keep that date no matter how unprepared you feel. Don’t practice indefinitely.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7599223
This is a great idea. Set everything up in OBS to stream, but hit "start recording." You can even roleplay with yourself as if you were responding to chat.

I am done with the design, i like her enough to settle down. Now to polish the model and rig it.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7606974
Jump in and promote along the way. Get your content making reps in and then once everything's in place, you can do a fancy debut if you want. I don't see the point, personally. Just start streaming and see if you enjoy it before you waste time, energy, and money on a big debut.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7606974
Promote along the way. Reps are more important, and you can actually reap the benefits of a debut later when you have a following who will show up for your Live2D/3d model.

>>7606684
Try to always be talking, even if it is just about the game. Explain what your thought processes are and why you are doing what you are doing.

I had my affiliate celebration stream yesterday. Not my first stream since hitting affiliate, but one where we could do a 'lore' video, and take a long time to interact with chat.

Went from an average of 5 viewers to an average of 9; had 6 gift subs handed out, got raided four different times... I know that not all the numbers will stick around, but I'd honestly expected it to just be my normal 3~5 regulars. Feelsgoodman.gif

Thanks anons, thanons.

I know the numbers are still small, especially to any experienced streamer, but I'm finally getting over the complete and utter imposter syndrome; and inability to shill myself everywhere.

So weird how other chuubas are majority of my audience though. I got a $20 dono from some dude who I've watched a few times, and five or six 69 bit drops because I'd just say 'nice'. On the one hand, I kind of want to give back to them as thanks, but that's just putting cash into Twitch's pockets, you get me?

You can give back to them by looking for ways to improve the stream. New alerts/graphics usually gets people somewhat excited and aren't hard or expensive to set up

Try looking into Triggerfyre for setting up channel point alerts. I have some sound effects set up to play on redeems. Nothing to big or long, but things like a bonk, sheesh, etc...

People LOVE being involved with streamers more than anything. Best way to give back is to give them a way to directly influence what others are seeing. I have some funny clips of Souls games where people have timed "Bonks" to play when an enemy hit me or did something in a cutscene

[Anonymous No.]

You absolute madlad, this is exactly the sort of thing I've been looking for. Can it be linked to OBS?

One of the point redeems I've got is 'stupid meme screen', but I have to pay attention and manually change OBS. Apparently Lioranboard can do it, but it looked like one/two people shilling hard

Yes, it's a browser source, so you can just put it into any streaming software, really. It does everything automatically. I don't know if you can have anything set up to be "permanent" or as a toggle or anything though.

I can't speak from personal experience, but a friend of mine has had a larger chuuba with a few hundred viewers support her since she was a single digit streamer.

are you doing it for the money or are you doing it for the hype? if you're doing it for the money, just give the money directly to your friend, what's the issue there? the point of cross donating bits and subs is to trigger a hype train going so other viewers start making big donations. what's $20 bucks lost when you can trick 50 other people to contributing to a hype train and make $120 back from it?

[Anonymous No.]

>>7630703
This is the bigbrain attitude. I manage a chuuba and I'll often drop a few subs from alt (One person can't trigger a hype train) and Twitch has "gamified" the act of giving that every single time it's resulted in them getting multiple times what I've given.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7630703
nta, but if it's just a sub, no big deal. but when it's $20 in subs (twitch eats half though) and $20 in bits (costing you around $25), thats a bit different. i absolutely am not in this for the money, but throwing cash at each other means twitch is the only one who wins.

donoing to trigger hype trains is a good call though.

you're competing against vtubers like Mint and Nova. if you don't come close to that, or have a natural talent, they're not even going to look at your application. you think after the success of Niji EN so far, they're going to pick up some hopeful with zero experience? start streaming and get some experience so you have something to show.

The person who fits what they're looking for likely has numbers, experience, and all those other silly metrics. Look at the people picked thus far for the major orgs. All of HoloEN had numbers in one form or another, even Ame's roommate pulled 200-300 viewers and was growing before joining HoloeN and that was when those numbers were extremely rare.

Your numbers matter more than anything else because they're proof of what you can do instead of what you might be able to do in some fantasy world. Why pick a random newbie with a cute audition video over someone with 300 average viewers and a great social media presence?

Super late to this, but... I'm PNGTubing atm too. You just gotta get started.

I have a lot of people asking me about a proper model, so if you start as PNG and get people intrigued, there's going to be much more hype to you getting a proper model.

You could add some expressions via toggles, which could help you sort of bridge over to having a proper model. Those could just literally be overlaid eyebrows and a frown.
I was playing DS3 and losing my mind to Dancer, so I put a clown wig and red nose over my PNG, and people loved it.
Don't be shy to add some accessories depending on what game you play, especially with how easy that is for PNGTubers. Really use that to your strength.

Alternatively, you could look into VRoid to make your own 3D model with assets downloaded from booth, but I don't really like the way they look personally.

Listen, what you do in the comfort of your own home is your own business.
>>7666858
This is something I ran into while considering doing a read/playthrough of a CYOA novel. In short, most publishers are very restrictive with anything approaching audiobooks. Even if you do manage to get a reply from their social media, it's often just a canned response of "Thanks for your interest, but no." This even extends to stuff written 30+ years ago. If you truly want to do audio readings, find a book in the public domain.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7666757
I'd disagree.
Its pretty common for everyone to shit on male fashion irl too. Even among anime/vidya males they're usually mocked for being pretty generic. Women always have more variety they can work with when it comes to fashion and design.
The big thing is anything men wear a woman can wear just as well as he can if not better/more naturally. Girls in suits are sexy, and the cut of a female suit accentuates her body more than it does for men. Sporty women are well liked as well.
But the opposite isn't true, most female clothing is wholly unsuited for male use without massive modifications, and even then it'll usually turn into something extremely flamboyant. Plus you're usually limited when it comes to hair, which is a big element of anime art styles. Almost all male characters have the same generic short-medium length hair styles.

Not that you can't make attractive male characters, but from a fashion point of view you just have less to work with when it comes to male. Best bet for male designs is going military or fantasy, but that carries its own problems.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7666757
I personally think its just a lack of awareness on what you can do with male designs. Men's fashion does tend towards subtlety but even with modern looks there's loads of variations, albeit less "flashy" than men's fashion. Of course that's ignoring the often cancerous streetwear looks and the works of more forward-looking designers.

There's also a multitude of historical fashions you could draw on. Menswear wasn't always the Brummel-esque collection of subdued colors it's currently known as. Nothing's stopping you from streaming at an 1860's courtier, or any other flashy historical archetypes.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7667111
Another big hit on flamboyant male designs is that its tied down by limitations of L2D and 3D models which aren't the easiest to animate.

Shellin is a good example of what I think a good male model can be like without crossing the line of being ridiculous. Though he's still a little more on the modest side probably.

You're SOL if you think you'd get permissions.

I know of two posters here who do readings - one does out of copyright stuff (Beowulf, Shakespeare, etc); and the other turns off clips/vods, and just hopes nobody records it.

If you pick something without an existing audiobook, you probably face low risks... But it's up to you if you want to risk it. Best case, if you get caught, is any income from that stream is taken, and a percentage of everything since (if they can argue you got clout from that stream).

Personally, I'd advise either picking self-published things from Amazon, or ones without copyright. If it's self-published, then there's not a company going to go to war with you over it if anyone ever finds out.

Which actually makes me wonder - is fanfiction a safe one to read on stream?

>no money to hire an artist or whoever to make the live2d avatar
One thing I've been thinking on is streaming a 'making of the streamer' style. For me personally, my character's a wizard. So it'll be "runic preparations and rituals", but it's just me learning vroid.

But you could start from scratch. Make a shitty open/close mouth smiley face in mspaint in your first stream. Build up complexity over time, stream all the rigging, all the drawing. Could maybe be interesting, but you might need to port in an audience from existing.

Of course, this requires you to have art skills.

Which you said you don't.

is kinda okay to work with. but its a bit simple which makes it kinda boring. the intricate design is what makes it work here and not just be a generic robe, but having an artist actually do that would probably take it into the uncanny valley type of effect. and keeping it too simple turns it into just a boring robe (which is what maimoto? has basically)
>>7675654
is just a gay looking suit, but without the simple appeal of a suit. at this point I suggest just getting a well tailored suit that accentuates a pretty boy look or go with a bartender look.
>>7675691
literally just t-shirt and jeans on a pretty boy.

also t-shirt and jeans with a bed sheet thrown on top.
>>7675794
something similar to this could probably work, but its basically just a generic hoodie/tshirt since you'll never see the skirt

personally i'd lean more toward victorian style historical designs and such. I think they're probably the sexiest a man could be, take inspiration from black butler and such.
going full fantasy would be a negative imo because it usually just feels like generic male protagonist man rather than something unique. e.g. i was looking at atelier characters to prove a point, but all the men look like they could be copy and pasted into any game and look like the hero protag, while the girls all felt fairly unique to their setting and i can immediately point out an atelier girl.

probably would be holo, it's too early for NIji to have sceduled and gone through all the round 2 phone interviews, contact people and have the round 3 video interviews, and then picked the final girls.

finding an artist is bad enough, but you also need the voice to go along with it. no one from /asp/ will be able to pull that off.

I got my results on my interview which was a copy paste saying how I wasn’t fit for the current concept. RIP. I’m waiting for a response from two other companies I applied for, but my hopes aren’t high.

This is my 9th time failing an audition.

based, you dont need Nabi, there are plenty of potential artists that would generate a lot of buzz if they were to become mammas and papas.

Personally I find this JP indie I stumbled onto on twitch to have a much more attractive model than most babi designs but coomerbrain cannot be cured so I digress https://twitter.com/nagi_yaotome/status/1419529556982059008?s=20

For the spergs here who have nigger and faggot so ingrained in their daily vocabulary how you stop yourself from having an epic gamer moment on stream? Its such a problem when pretty much everyone in my IRL circle says it too so I'm too normalized with saying it

[Anonymous No.]

I'm probably an idiot for bothering to think about this question just now, but would making a review after a few dozen gameplay videos be a bad thing. I thought it would be so because the gameplay videos would drown out the review one.

You could make a channel for gameplay vids and one for specifically reviewing games, singing, etc. whatever else you do like some streamers do.

[Anonymous No.]

>>7691477
this isn't 2010 anymore, anon. review videos are dead and viewers already have well established channels they go to for reviews anyway. no one is going to go out of their way to find a 2view chuuba reviewing a game for 15 minutes.

No, but someone may go out of their way to find a particular game reviewed by a 2view. There are plenty old and obscure games no one talked about, where people would love to know more.

>>7691555
>barely have a viewer base on the gameplay channel
>have to build another channel specifically for reviewing
That's a sound strategy on paper, but I don't think I have enough will power to try that out yet.

>>7691594
I know I have a niche that I can fill, I know Japanese and is autistic enough about certain franchises which have more than half of its games being Japanese-only, so I plan on doing guides and reviews for those games. My problem for now (that I'm aware of) is that I don't have a viewer base yet, then reviews for Japanese-only games probably won't gain me many viewers for at least after a few years if I'm lucky.

you and several hundred thousand other western weebs. you're not special and that's not a niche. sorry your brain has stopped developing since 2010, but video game reviews are dead as content on youtube. you're not talking about years, you're just not going to have an audience period. get caught up with the modern times and create shit that works today, not from what you remember worked back in 2010.
