■1. Introduction
Thank you for all your support!
My name is Amama Nia, a Virtual Youtuber and Singer who debuted on February 22, 2020.
Thank you for your interest in this project.
To commemorate my debut’s first anniversary, I’m taking on the challenge of creating my first album. I’ll be talking about my thoughts on the project too, so I hope you can read this to the end!
■2. How this project came about
There might be some people who aren’t familiar with me so I’d like to introduce myself:
My name is Amama Nia (天満ニア)!
I love singing, and I’m a serious gamer. I usually stream let’s plays and singing streams.
I’ve sing a lot of songs from wonderful artists on my streams and videos.
Through my cover videos, I’ve encountered some great people and was able to release my very first original song “Time leap” on October 2020 on Youtube.
A lot more people than I expected listened to it, and I’ve received a lot of great comments from them.
Creating an original song was always one of my goals. Nothing else makes me happier than hearing everyone’s warm voices of support.
Ever since my debut, I’ve had so many special experiences that I wouldn’t believe an independent VTuber like myself would ever get to have.
I’ve been able to come this far thanks to all the support from the Amama-min – the fans; as well as the creators who have helped me with my activities as a VTuber. Truly, thank you all so much!
I have a dream that I’ve wanted to fulfill since my debut: to produce my very first original album.
As I continue my activities, I’ve been hearing from my fans that they want to hear more of my original music,and if I will ever release a CD.
I’m glad to hear it, but as an independent VSinger, it’s difficult to make it happen. The idea of an original album has always been at the back of my mind, something I would think would be nice if it was to happen someday.
With February 22 marking the first anniversary of my debut, I want to express my gratitude to everyone who has supported me, and to show how much I’ve grown! With that sentiment, I decided that now would be the time to take on the challenge of producing my first original album!
■3．Why Crowdfunding?
I wanted to put much more effort than I have before into producing my first original album to commemorate my debut’s first anniversary, but as mentioned earlier, I’ve been working as an independent VTuber, so I inevitably run into the giant hurdle of funding.
As I wondered if there was a way to make this dream come true on that landmark day, after a lot of worrying and asking around, I came across crowdfunding as a way to push through with the production, together with everyone’s cooperation.
The more I looked into it, I realized that this is the platform I could use to give form to my thoughts and feelings – so I decided to take on the challenge of starting this crowdfunding.
This is the first time I’m trying this, and I am feeling anxious, but I promise that if this project succeeds, I will make it a project that everyone will be glad to have supported.
After completing this original album, my next goal would be to perform these songs in front of everyone: holding a live performance. For that to come true, I will try even harder so that more and more people will know about me so that we can all share in that fun experience together.
Won’t you help Amama Nia make her dreams into reality?
I’m looking forward to your support!
■4．Project Plan
This crowdfunding is to help the VSinger Amama Nia raise the funding to produce her first original album to commemorate her debut’s first anniversary.
The goal of the project is set at 500,000 Yen.
After calculating the production costs, we’ve decided that that amount is enough to produce the album without compromising on its quality.
We’ve adopted an all-or-nothing system for this crowdfund. If we don’t reach the goal by the end of the campaign, the challenge will be considered a failure and the amount will be refunded in full.
I will do my best to repay all of your support through the rewards.
I did my best to come up with them, and hope you consider supporting.
■5．Expenses Breakdown
The money pooled together will be primarily used for the following expenses:
・Recording studio fees
・Mixing and mastering fees
・CD pressing costs
・Music composition and arrangement fees
・muevo’s platform fees
・Rewards fulfillment
