CLIP STUDIO PAINT developer Celsys and Live2D co-hosted a collaboration roundtable focused on practical production know-how for VTuber creators. In the third installment of the series, Live2D modeler Himono Kanbutsu, illustrator Ryosuke Fukai, and VTuber Emma Kayamori discussed how they handle contracts, NDAs, and communication during Live2D character creation.
Kanbutsu said he issues a quotation before starting work and an invoice after finishing, and only signs a contract when delivering editable cmo3 files. Kayamori noted she had a lawyer create a personal NDA for self-protection as an independent creator. The panel agreed that written documentation helps prevent the kind of "he said/she said" disputes that arise from vague agreements.
