An UTAU group for the disabled

LunaAkimine

so basically there are loads of handicapped people in this world, but none of them could become an idol, because of social discrimination, so this utau group would have handicapped and disabled utauloid. I've thought of a few and they can have different voice types

Blind - Soft/Vibrant
Leg amputated (artificial legs) - Power
Leg amputated (wheelchair bound) - Sweet
Cancer survivor** - Solid
Deaf* - Whisper
Schizophrenia - Distracted/Scared/screamo

etc etc.

*it is not impossible to be a musician even if you're deaf. Look at beethoven. Its because of you doubtful people that some people dont dare to try and become an idol. Sometimes they sound real good but they dont believe in themselves. Why? Social discrimination

** bald for design, short hair for append?

well i cant think of more at the moment, but anyone interested?


its sad to see the disabled shunned away.

edit: I havent thought of the actual name for the loid thingy btw |:sing:

I wanna join! As long as you don't discriminate the blind people because people apperntly like blind UTAU. *glares at everyone*

I'm not sure if I'll make an UTAU for it... But I'll help out in oto'ing, writing and such.

Does anyone on board have any experience promoting/performing music with these disabilites? I think it would be good to have input from those guys. It's important to know things, like how deaf singers hone their singing skill.

I would love to join, because I actually have a disability.... but I didn't give it to any of my Utauloids. (I was kinda scared to.)

But I can try to do anything that might need doing, and if needed I'll give one of my twins my "problem." *shot*

I really like this. A lot. Thinking more, it'd be interesting if we could raise awareness and help out others in real life with disabilities. By raising money on a website and donating it to charity and things. It would be pretty cool to help out our fellow humans with UTAU. ovo It would probably be difficult to do so, though. It's a nice thought, I guess. xD;;

Name: Keerii
Handicapped in which area: Cancer survivor, maybe? There's other types of disabilities out there, other than the more 'obvious' ones, so more ideas could come to light.
What you can do: Well, I could help with just about anything. There's some things I'm better or worse at, but overall, it's all just equal. o3o

Yeh, I really like this idea. ovob I myself don't know what it's like working in music with a disability, but research should help.

The deaf can have help from someone. The conductor gives a band ahnd signals to tell them whether they need to be louder or have impact. So it is technically not impossible . Just need some help.

That'll be great! And encouraging! :D

You're welcome. vuv Okay. Well, right now, I can't be an artist, since my tablet isn't working. I could help with otos (Just CV, atm.), designing, and making pvs. I guess parodies too, although I'm not quite sure. xD;; I'm still working on that Pokemoshka chorus, and I'm trying to make it sort of... like a parody? At least just a bit amusing.

ovob Sorry, rambling slightly. In short, I can help in:

  • CV otos
  • Designing
  • PVs
  • Parodies

And I see that I'm already listed for making the UTAU, so that's that. ouo I haven't thought of any other disabilities yet, but yeah.

Lol, I have a question. (Sorry for bugging you!)

Does it have to be a PHYSICAL disability, or can it be a mental one?

I believe that it can be a mental one. It has schizophrenia listed now, so I assume so. ovo
