Unlike traditional youtube or fans, fans of the 2 bodies will send more virtual presence or generate steps to see their name or message. Im going to be to bridge screen. There are 3 types of with this folder. For us the uh, from the out about the eyes meant of youtube, video content and sick entities promotion from a company. For example, from one thing. So as um, product to a project and so and subway is the uh, g o, from the audience in the arrive of streaming fans have given tips of up to 10000 euros. Theyll donate with the aim of getting closer to the retailer idle. The tubing is not just entertainment, its also a lucrative business model. Feelings come into play and fans and creators phone emotional bonds of approachable, yet keeping an air of mystery that really seems to work at least for the cheapest. As like all garage, more re, calliope, and this is best to reach you. But what, when i, when miles they all have millions of fans across youtube and which, with numbers like that, its no wonder why v to bus of being featured in advertisements. Some even collaborate with cities and local authorities, the site tom up with extra close to tokyo uses and meet you. But as a tourism ambassador, so of course you, because of call, that has been advertising for the area since 2022. These deals are often negotiated by v to the managers and specialized agencies. V tubing is no longer a nice phenomenon. In many places, it has become an integral part of the Entertainment Industry. The tube or agencies manage their talents like they were traditional artist. Agencies like hollow live, the songy and b shojo or some of the major players. Another is the agency prism which belongs to sony. Founded in tokyo in 2021 prism most was bilingual talents. This way they can reach foreign markets like the us. Were animate culture, its booming. Economy is just becoming very popular worldwide. And i think the, the tubing phenomenon goes hand in hand with that. And the tubing is like a combination of both streaming and annually. So each, originally like a fever and recruiters talking and interacting with you and your plan. So i think thats why people are so drawn to them. Since the 20 terms, many di tubers have increase their reach exponentially. Its no surprise that they caught the attention of the Entertainment Industry one of the largest features in the entire world, the largest, in fact, he is actually on the english side rather than on japanese. On not only the population of English Speaking countries and the number of the hands of that content, whether its animate content, user content, gaming content and so on, of course, succeeds the population in japan, the worlds leading regions. Where is gal gura . She has more than 4300000 subscribers on youtube alone. In 2022, she overtook keys are not as high as the biggest a b 2 per star. More and more in the stream is our aiming to make a big agency see this . Thats an opportunity a lot of people who are getting into the content creation as an independent have not been professional content creators before. And so they dont know the business advocate or the business document, i guess, to be able to negotiate those things out themselves. And there are a lot of creators out there that wish they could have a manager who has that business experience come in and kind of take care of all of those back into administrative things. And they can focus on what they do best, which is content creation, etc. Think there are. But this comes at a price. Usually the agencies keep about a 3rd of the profits generated by the v tubers. And theyre involved in planning the client schedule and exchange the ve tubers get access to a top notch production environment. They can use the agencies Marketing Networks to generate more reach and revenue. The agencies can also help them develop new formats and content. For the 2 of us being close, the fans can have a dock side, even if the true identities are mazda advertised, it can be dangerous. Some deal with harassment and hate speech, including eco hershey for e. I think, uh, every content creator has dealt with. Like mean spirited comments and im kind of insensitive comments and stuff um whether youre of youtube or not, i think the to where is it in our kids we do have that spent we have another do layer to that and not people tend to forget that we are a real person to but we all kind of went to, to not take any of it to heart. What kind of harassment do virtual artists and performers face like in the middle of predicting a v tuber herself and researcher wanted to find out for a study on harassment medicares. She spoke to more than 800 people about whether they had been harassed in a virtual environment before together with her friend and fellow v to burn them. She presented her findings in a virtual Live Conference the most common form it for aspirant was sexual harassment. There is 3 types of harassment that were divided by the local physical and environmental environmental was being shown in appropriate images just as a physical was being touched in the, in the appropriate manner and vocal while it was slurs um, inappropriate language and everything to do with that research are also tested if the way an avatar looked influence the level of harassment people. I noticed once i tried using i made all thats all in the outfit. And another day i tried using one just like regular like jeans and stuff. I didnt notice of the made of it, i did, especially in public words, and i did the end of attract small hunches, behavior i and then the other one. Unfortunately, the 2 of us also need to be protected from hate speech. Fortunately, new laws are in the making around the world in the you type some like youtube or risk having to pay a huge penalty is if they dont work to come back online harassment, reach you. But agencies also try to protect that create us from hate speech. Were really, really serious about taking care of the Mental Health of our talent as well. And focusing on not only being a Business Partner for them, but as a friend along the journey are content creation. But according to research are ludmilla. But they cannot find many of the tubers want more support from moderators, for example. Or they want more effective tools for blocking abusive users on their channels. However, more restrictions could also affect freedom and anonymity. 2 things, both the users and the 2 birds value a lot. The more you stop temperament, lets say uh, rules that especially if its in the case of like governmental stuff like that, it might take away some of the freedom. Its more about the you know, implementing the overall governing tools. The more like, given the uses, the ability to defend themselves and better, and actually also to protect themselves. Thats ridiculous fellow v tuber no co authored the report about harassment and the meta verse. Nothing recently produced a song in which she praised the benefits of the matter versus like freedom through reinvention of virtual paradise, but still play by the same issues as the real world. Some of the tube as also tackle real life problems like me nor ruby, you know, who has no party affiliation, but has been elected to the local council of a tokyo district 3 times as of each year. But he plays the video games and speaks about solely in the quality at his own political plans. All of this is very accessible. So fans can take part in the discussion.
