Think You Have What it Takes to be a Vtuber? Read This First!

Hey pals! Have you been thinking about taking the leap into becoming a vtuber? Well let this pup provide some guidance to start you on your journey to streaming success!

First things first - make sure you actually enjoy streaming and being on camera! The vtuber life isn’t all just kawaii models and anime gameplay. You gotta have passion for performing and engaging with your community. Test the waters by streaming regularly as yourself before committing to an avatar. 

Once you’re sure this lifestyle is for you, put some thought into developing your virtual persona! Brainstorm what kind of character would fit your interests and the niche you want to fill. Popular options are energetic gamer girls, cute animal avatars, anime protagonists or even virtual versions of yourself! Just make it unique to you.

After you’ve settled on a persona, it’s time to bring your character to life with a quality avatar model. You can commission artists to design a custom vtuber model just for you. Another option is using vr chat or premade avatar software if you’re on a budget. Make sure it has decent facial tracking to express your reactions! Or you can commission an artist to create you a PNG if you are on a budget.

With your avatar set up, it’s time to start putting yourself out there on sites like Youtube and Twitch. Set a schedule, test your tech, get your lighting and camera angles just right. Play games you love and let your character’s personality shine. Interact with chat and build a community that will keep coming back.

It takes hard work - but living the vtuber life is so rewarding when you start growing your channel! Stay motivated, support fellow vtubers, and have fun pursuing your virtual streaming dreams.

Let me know if you need any other tips for starting your vtuber journey! This pup’s always happy to help.
