2020 VTuber Character Design Contest
A serious blow has been inflicted upon all cities across Taiwan. We would like to encourage character design which is targeting to revitalize cities and towns with its particular industry or product, which might lack of promotion during the pandemic.
Winners from this contest is also welcome to work with contestants for Taiwan VTuber Association’s annual Digital Human contest in mid 2021.
[ Theme ]
Digital content economy is hot. We also see quite a few Japanese cities and towns have been developing their own Digital Ambassadors. Such new characters are often used to promote the local product, animal or even intangible cultural assets. They even have their own Youtube channels to maintain their voice to the world. We see this is a great opportunity to create particular character to represent each city or town from Taiwan.
