    I always wanted to be a popular vTuber like Nyanners, I really thought copying the stuff she did would help me grow. Considering that's the advice everyone is giving on how to grow as a content creator "copy what the successful vtubers do". Anyone who has tried vTubing most likely made these mistakes. I failed being a vTuber content creator for quite a while and struggled to have any growth or success. Here in this video I am going to show you and vTuber chan the mistakes I made and how I overcame them.

      I just want to say that this is a really refreshing video, it is quite real and I like a lot
      I just want to add that, collabs arent as good as ppl may think because unless (4 instance) me and the person im collabing with are around the same lvl or type of energy, things can get really awkward really fast.
      I also want to say that you are wrong about the "lucky growth" because it is real and it happens BUT unless you have the fundamentals covered and you know why ppl enjoy the content, that "lucky growth" may end up becoming a curse
      have a neat day and glad to see you are enjoying this :D

    Mari, you're great. One thing you and Nyanners have in common, is that both of you don't realize how much your viewers care for you, and your content. You're a great VTuber, CZcamsr and streamer, and nothing is going to change that. You realized your mistakes and decided to learn from them and grow, and that's what makes you so valued by your viewers, by us, by this whole community. 💕 The darker the darkness the brighter the light. You've always been a sort of VTuber mother or older sister figure, and you've helped me for ever and always. Take care and remember there's always, *always* someone out there rooting for you; if not a whole community rooting for you.

    3:40 The reason big streamers, vtubers, and content creators in general are able to keep pumping out new contents almost everyday to constantly entertain their viewers, while still enjoy the process of content creation themselves is they have a team/group of people behind them, supporting them physically and mentally.
    They grow together and take care of each other as a team. (The group of people can be their editors, moderators, technical supports, or even family and friends that can be their active supporters.) A lot of time the faces of these people doesn't appear is because they prefer to work in the background, and part of the support crew, but that doesn't mean they don't exist or they aren't the big part of the reason why a content creator grows in popularity and content quality.
    It's physically impossible and mentally taxing for someone to consistently do all the work by themselves, and sometimes people dont realise that (especially when they are new to the field).
    (I don't think I'm in the place to say this but,) if you're starting out new, all by yourself, take your time. Grow slowly, then eventually make friends with more people that resonates with you, care about you, willing to help you and maybe eventually partly hired by you. Don't rush things and compare your own growth with other people's. Growing your own community is about the people who stays, not how quickly someone comes (and possibly goes).

    • @makurafa
      @makurafa Před 2 lety +7

      That was exactly my thought, you formulated this great! Many people work all alone but keep comparing themselves with bigger groups. In fact, it's not healthy to compare yourself with others too much in general. Stay safe everyone, and may God bless you and the path that lies ahead of you! :)

Or for me, I have a lot of adhd and ASD symptoms caused by side effects of my health condition and other mental stuff going on! Even got misdiagnosed at one point. Either way, if you do end up being diagnosed one day, it's nothing bad or embarassing, just like any other condition isn't. If you are genunely worried I'd recommend to go for a potential diagnosis if possible, and if not just look up tips for living adhd and see if they work for you, and if they do then great! Just don't self diagnose big conditions like these, even if you do believe you have them passionately, a lot of conditions are very similar to eachother and selfdiagnosing as in publicly claiming you have it can be harmful. Though it is fine to genuinely think so yourself and mention it to family and friends about how you relate to it and think you might have it. Wish you the best, and stay yourself :)!

    I've seen a lot of advice on content creation strategies before, but this was one of the first ones that hasn't felt superficial. This is GOOD advice, i'm not involved in the vtubing community whatsoever but I still think there's a lot of value in this, it really seems like you're a much better creator because you've learned the hard way because you actually *know* what you're doing right and how to do it and why because you didn't start out doing it correctly by luck or natural charisma. People that tend to start that way can't guide others easily. I'm definitely saving this as creative advice for my group!

This was recommended to me from some other vtuber clips, saw the title it was intersting in this vtuber era, but the things that kept me watchign till the end was your honesty. You were talking about subjects even the most succesful vtubers can't, like clout chasing etc. which are very uncomfortable subjects, but you did it in a very honest and straight forard way, while of course explaining the context and while the subject is really bad, people are not bad and it can be complicated etc.

    Hey, I found your videos about vtubing and used most of the tips to help me figure out what to focus on. Today I was going to start writing down some scripts for videos so when I had my webcam set up I could actually start marketing myself as a vtuber. This video came at the right time for me and felt I should leave a like and comment because through setting everything up I see how important feedback is. I have trouble sticking to one thing because for me it's not popularity I'm chasing but I guess approval that my ideas will someday make a livable income for me. I know it's something that a lot of people are also feeling and why they want the fame and money because they think it will solve their problems. I don't mean to rant or ramble, but I just wanted to let you know I was very happy to see you talk about not only the good of sticking with something but also the bad and how draining it can feel to put yourself out there so much. So I just wanted to say thank you for the video, I'm in a better mindset now and feel encouraged to do great things!

It's better to post and get 5 views than not posting because you started hating yourself and not posting anything after you "killed" your channel. Only I wished that i had learned that before especially since this happened to me 3 time already...

    i don't know much about English vtuber communities, but in japan and indonesia(especially indonesia) communities, there are 3+1 factor you can succes as vtuber
    - the content creator it self
    ofc it's about the content creator it self
    - the fanbase
    the more vtuber get huge and healthy fanbase the more vtuber succes
    - the clipper
    the more vtuber get clip by clipper(especially with big clipper) the more vtuber get attention, the more vtuber could get more subscribers and viewers(and it's seriously effective)
    + relationship with other vtubers
    the more vtuber get a good relationship with other vtubers, the more vtuber could get a good friends and experience(sharing experience etc) and could sharing audience with do some collaboration with them(and ofc without boundaries like the subribers count, community, etc)
    and ofc vtuber can copy other vtubers(for the inspiration), but rather than just a "copy" a vtuber could do ATM, in indonesia usually we called ATM, Amati(observe), Tiru(imitate/copy), Modifikasi(modify), that technique usually for business(product), art, entertainment, etc and it's often effective
    that's what i know and sorry for my broken grammar

For the longest time I had been focusing on engaging in so many communities and did essentially the same thing by reaching out to bigger creators and trying to make connections...and while connections can be helpful, I realized I wasn't trying to make actual friends. Not only that, I wasn't focusing on making good content. Since then I've changed completely and started investing time and work into my content first and foremost, and saw quite a substantial growth to my channel and got many loyal fans!

    @RamDragon32 Před 2 lety +1

    Thank you for this! I've been considering stretching into vtubering (yes, it's a word. I think.) for most of a decade, mostly because after forming my channel in 2011 I realised I'm completely unphotogenic. My good side is when the camera faces the wall. Of course, then I discovered my next magor obstacle to becoming a youtuber personality and that is that I'm just an introvert. When I hear youTubers talk about how social media affect their mental health, it makes my skin crawl to imagine being in that situation. I know it wouldn't affect me nearly as much as other but that's only because I don't have the social fortitude to power through and I'd have quit with the slightest bit of social pressure. that's why I appreciate videos like this one. I'm a midle-aged man-child but I still find myself looking up to content creators like you.
    I'll make it my goal this weekend to spin up a face and some lore. That way, if I ever find my courage, I'll have my vtuber in the barrel and ready to shoot.

  • @ShanaGartrex
    @ShanaGartrex Před 3 měsíci

    A great video, happy this came up in my recommends... albeit 2 years later.
    This can also be some good points for just Content Creation in general, not just VTubers, which is nice.
    The fact that some people see their viewers as "just another number" is such a bad mentality, and I'm happy to see people who don't do this. Its true we are not just a number, we are all people enjoying what we love, making content or watching said content. There are only so many minutes in a given day after all.
    I've been looking into starting myself as a VTuber, but I have realized that I do try to do too many things at once. Even not making content, I tend to stretch myself too thin across multiple communities because I just love being part of one. Lately I've been taking a step back and keeping to myself with my small group of friends, and while I'm doing this self focus of sorts, I am also making plans for the future in what I want to do and how I can prevent myself from stretching too thin again... More so as I start working on content again.
    This video did help me. Thank you Mari. Hope things have been well the last 2 years since this was posted. ^.^

    @katkrazy339 Před 2 lety

    This was honestly such a refreshing perspective to hear as someone trying to make content themselves, especially the copying others and coming to the realisation that you just have to be yourself. I didn't intentionally look for vtubers to watch but I honestly think that I might stay for your content and you. I know it'll be a tough and long journey to get to somewhere I'm happy with my content but I'm feeling more inspired to make a better start! ^w^

    As a brand new streamer and vtuber as of 3-4 weeks ago, this advice is highly appreciated! Thank you so much for this video, I can definitely relate to some of these mistakes so far.
    One of the harsher ones is NOT to tell a popular vtuber that you are a new streamer without them asking first. I've been banned from chat on one of them and I didn't realize it at first why, but after following the community closely for a while, it's starting to make sense.
    And you're absolutely right, it's about your passion and quality of your content, not the numbers alone. Now, it's good to set goals yeah, but don't make it your primary mission.
    What should your primary mission be you may ask? HAVE FUN.
    No seriously, have fun, because if you're having fun, your viewers are having fun period.

    @TommyGx69 Před 2 lety +1

    Really good video, and thank you for speaking up so openly about it since i guess this wasn't easy.
    I think this will help a lot of Vtubers to realize what's important and to stop overfocussing on numbers and the growth of others. Or also to try making forced friendships etc. Those are all bad for mental health leading often in the end to burnout.
    And i think taking nyanners as example was the best choice. Especially since most people don't know she was active in different communities for years and already did content creation back then. She was also my fav. vtuber (now not anymore because of different reasons) so that's why i also informed a lot about her and realized that.
    She did also several mistakes of couse. But as you said, keep going is an important key.
    Also a really important Part of Content creation is: Having Fun while doing it.
    Even if i knew most of those things already, I'll keep that video in my favs to remind myself what's important about it, since i honestly often catch myself going into those directions and this will definately punch me out of it again. :3
    I'll also share this to my vtuber friends where i think that they eventually struggle with the same things. Thank you again! ♥

    Good advice as the Vtuber scene grows and becomes similar to other CZcams scenes, standing out is harder and niches need to develop especially since a stream takes a lot more time to watch than a regular video. But I think what’s most important is knowing that if anyone comes to your stream, especially someone who doesn’t know you outside of your Vtuber personality (and even then), they’re spending valuable time on you instead of someone else and that’s really amazing. Good video and really appreciate the insights

    Thank you so much for this video! 💗 It was a lot more emotional than I expected. As an aspiring CZcamsr I can relate, it's hard work and it can get so disheartening when you're not growing as much as other people you look up to. I think it's especially tough when you want to make a career out of it.
    But I think you're right - when confronted with massive numbers of others, one can forget that behind each like and comment is a person. And we don't need hundreds of thousands of followers to be valuable. "I am not a number" is a great sentiment, and solidified you as one of my personal faves - you've successfully resonated with a (fellow ADHD) person 😊I look forward to watching where you go from here!
    Also, the fact that you manage to balance a full-time job with VTubing is very impressive. I'm not really managing to do that at the moment qvq Do you have any tips for that?

    This video was honestly a breath of fresh air, I enjoy watching people's opinions on their journey and how it got popular and it usually all amounts to the same kinds of things, but everyone interprets them differently. I recently started VTubing since I had wanted to for a while, and my friend made a PNGTuber model and was starting off that way and was planning on upgrading as things got bigger, focusing on her content first and foremost. I loved that approach and did the same, and now we share advice on programs, games to play, music to use on stream, and more. It helps that we have been friends since we were in Elementary School.
    I will cite this video as something very helpful to me and spread it to anyone else who may need to hear this kind of stuff.

    What an incredible video! I've felt almost every thing you mentioned here. I've been feeling really sad for not having as much success as other people who started at the same time or even later than me, but I also don't like doing some of the things they do. They pretty much live on Twitter and have tons of followers there, but not many people watch their content, which made me think that having Twitter followers doesn't really matter that much. I've tried doing the same thing as you, like talking with a bunch of Vtubers on Twitter to see if I can get some collabs, but I managed to get only one, and I wasn't the one who reached out to them. I also have ADD, so focusing on multiple things at the same time is very hard for me, and I'm also pretty shy, so I've realized that collabing with new people isn't as good as I thought it was, and although I did manage to make new friends, I also started comparing myself to them and that's terrible. I agree that focusing on numbers is a terrible thing. My regulars are not numbers, they're real people with real feelings and seeing them on chat and joining my Discord makes me so happy. The last part about making one person resonate with you almost made me cry because I remembered my own community. Thanks for the great video Mari!
