In a fascinating collaboration, CLIP Co., Ltd., based in Shibuya, Tokyo, and uyet Co., Ltd., regarded as a comprehensive commercial enterprise for IP content, have initiated a new promotional package aimed at video game companies. This innovative package employs the gameplay videos and short clips featuring VTubers, reinventing how video games are marketed through online platforms. The essence of this new promotion lies in using dedicated social media accounts created specifically for each game title rather than relying solely on the existing social media presence of the VTubers themselves. This approach diminishes dependence on the influencer power of the VTubers, paving the way for game promotions that can thrive independently of individual popularity.
Background of the Initiative Typically, promotions involving VTubers or streamers are centered around live broadcasts or video posts on the entertainer's social media accounts. While effective, this method often hinges on the fame and following of the VTuber, making it challenging for game companies to select appropriate talents that resonate with their game titles. Additionally, the VTubers face the pressure of maintaining their brand integrity while accommodating promotional content, which can sometimes hinder their ability to portray genuine reactions, thus limiting the game’s reach to potential fans. To address these issues, CLIP and uyet have developed this new promotional package that allows VTubers to focus on creating authentic gaming experiences while enabling game companies to leverage the genuine reactions captured for ongoing content creation.
Overview of the Promotional Package The package kicks off with an in-depth consultation with clients to better understand their goals and requirements. Suitable VTubers are then selected based on their ability to vividly represent the game title, utilizing uyet's extensive database of VTuber talent rather than merely their follower count. Selected VTubers will record their gameplay sessions, capturing visuals and audio to be processed later. CLIP manages the entire content creation cycle, from editing to social media account management, transmuting the VTubers' sincere reactions into various short videos that continuously promote the game's allure.
Target Game Titles Include: - New IP game titles - Completely original games - Games featuring existing anime, manga, or characters - Reboots/remakes of past titles - Revived series with a new release after a long hiatus - International games aiming at the Japanese market This dual promotional strategy not only builds hype before the game's release but continues to share gameplay content immediately after launch.
Distinct Features of the Package 1.
Not Solely Dependent on Popularity: With a variety of VTubers portraying distinct voices and styles, the game can be promoted from multiple angles, reducing reliance on the influence of any single VTuber. 2.
Cutting-Edge Content Creation: Through a single recording session, various engaging clips can be extracted from the gameplay to produce multiple promotional videos. 3.
Relieves Companies of Production Burdens: Client companies benefit from not needing to headhunt VTubers or manage the video production process, as CLIP handles talent selection and video creation entirely. 4.
Natural Engagement Over Advertisements: By focusing on organic reactions rather than scripted promotions, the game can resonate better with audiences.
