Statement

For my project I have created a V-Tuber/ V-Streamer and all the branding surrounding it. V-Tuber/Streamer stands for Virtual YouTuber/ Virtual Streamer. They are streamers who use a virtual avatar instead of showing their face on camera. It is hooked up with face detection software so that when I’m streaming, when I move the character moves. I have illustrated the avatar, made a couple videos for my channel, illustrated all the branding such as logos, business cards etc, illustrated all the assets that accompany the video and designed this process book.

The selling point of my streamer is that she is the embodiment of the sin of wrath sent to enlist an army on earth so that she can take over the world and terrorize people. The only issue is she is kind of dumb and incompetent but in a cute way. She wants to be intimidating but often time she comes off as funny or even cute. What I wanted to focus on for this project is the way that V-Streaming allows introverted people to get into performance arts with less pressure since you cant be anyone and anything. You don't have to show your actual face.
