A blog run by @kodzukens-streams and @tabsters to make and promote fanmade Haikyu!! media.

KZTB

Hey there. You might’ve stumbled upon this by accident, or you happened to look at some of the promos going around by this blog’s mods and decided you wanted to check it out.

So, you’ve found KZTB. This actually stands for “KodzuTab,” and that’s just a mix of Kodzuken (@kodzukens-streams) and Tabsters’ (@tabsters) names. This is because we’re planning to run a series of projects, all of which (currently) are related to Haikyu!!

If you’d like to join a current project or a future project, you can join our discord server.

Roles We Need:

Voice Actors (Main, Side, Backup, Background)

Animators (Storyboard, Keyframes, Tweening, Cleanup, Compositor)

Sound Producers (Editor/organizer, Music player, SFX)

Artists (Thumbnail, Promo, Fanart)

Editors (Promo, Video, Sound, Animation)

LIMITED TIME ONLY: Staff needed! (Patrol, Firewall, Cache, Backend, Pipeline, Interface, all of which are types of mods.)

We hope to make this a safe, fun space for everyone! 

But first… we need staff roles. We’ll link the Google Form if you are to DM this blog. It is NOT first come first serve, and whoever auditions we need those who are responsible, because we want an awesome server, and we can’t run that without organization.

Have fun, loves. We’ll be checking the blog as much as we can.

AGENDA

ABOUT THE MODS [Coming Soon]

PROJECT: BCB??? [Coming Soon]

We do not own any of the characters in Haikyu!!, and all that we make is fictional work.

May 30th!

We’ve got our results for the artists, and we’re proud to say all three artists made it into our cast! Congrats!

@ponto-the-dot - Promotion and Thumbnail artist.

@asher-dear - Design artist.

@beaniosart - Backup Design artist.

Stay alert for updates in our server, as the Directors will be giving further instructions later on.

May 29th!

Artist auditions officially closed on May 25th. We got a few submissions, so shoutout to everyone who applied. We’re currently reviewing them behind the scenes, and will be sending out the information tomorrow on Saturday, May 30th!

As for the main goal (our lovely interest check), we’re sitting at 16/25. We’re getting close! Just 9 more people and we can officially start moving forward with the big plans. Keep spreading the word if you can. Have a good day!

[kztb]

IT’S THE LAST DAY.

Alright folks, our Artist Auditions are closing by tomorrow, so you’ve gotta get your submissions in fast. The submission only takes a few minutes! Here are the questions:

DM the blog for the server link! Only three artists have auditioned thus far.

If you miss the auditions, don’t worry! We’ll open them back up in July (1st-7th) once we’re done with the server.

[kztb]

May 19th!

Annnnd we’re back to the daily posts. Yesterday we sent out our first artist auditions, which will be open until the 25th of May.

Just a few reminders! We still have to hit that 25-person goal. Once we get an artist or two locked in, we’ll probably start pushing our first promos on YouTube. We also just need one more person to apply for moderation so we can officially start with our 5 mods.

If you’ve got any questions, send us an ask or DM us! Stay safe, and have a good day! :]

[kztb]

Artists, here it is… the moment you’ve been WAITING FOR!

Artist Applications are up and open for a whole week, and there are four different kinds of artists:

Thumbnail Artists — You make the thumbnail for our videos, any song we might make, the covers of any comics—basically the first thing people see!

Promo Artists — You make the official art of our social media (blogs/channels), including here and YouTube. You make banners, avatars, and sometimes even borders.

Server Artists — You make the official art for our communities, both here and in Discord. Just like promo artists—banners, avatars, and sometimes even borders.

Design Artists — You create the designs, sort of like a brainstorm and a reference for the official artists. Writers (Kodzuken and Tabsters) may come to you detailing what they envision. You bring those words into an image and kickoff the rest of the art!

If you happened to miss this week’s auditions, we’ll open them back up in July in case this one was a bit too sudden.

So how does it work?

DM this blog and ask for the details of the audition! Some things will be clarified, and then you will be invited to the server via DMs. Any questions you have can be sent through an ask, or just ask them when you request the server!

We’re looking forward to seeing the submissions. See you there!

p.s. you see how this promo looks very very very boring? yes? that’s because we need artists see i wasnt lying.

[kztb]

Heads up! On May 18th (tomorrow), we are officially sending out auditions for artists!

These artists will be making all the art for our server, icons, promotions, and more. We’re sending these out fairly early because our mod team is going to need their art to help promote the rest of the project.

We know it’s a bit sudden, but we’ll keep these audition forms open for a week. Good luck to everyone!

On another note, we’ve just added our Agenda to our pinned post, the schedule to our project! Do what you will with that information. Have a good day!

[kztb]

May 16th!

We’ve got 4/5 people that we strived to gain for our moderation application form (y’all are fast what the heck)! Just one more person and we’ll reach our goal. Once someone fills out our moderation application, I’ll be letting all that were accepted know of their roles and we’ll start on the server. The moderation applications will still be up until June, so don’t worry. We can make the number of people who filled out our form an improper fraction! (stfu why are we using math terms here.)

If you need the form again, here it is!

May 15, 10:22 AM.

We got two more people last night, with everyone’s efforts.

Because I know that if we postpone these any longer, people will not be able to start in summer, we’ll keep this up. But we need at least 25 people by the time the moderation applications close!

Meaning, I’ll be linking the form. These will be open until June 1st. That is when I will sort through all the applications and make sure we have at least 25 people interested by then. We’re aiming for about 5 mods as of now as well, diligent and honest.

When filling out the moderation form, don’t worry if there are things you don’t know—we have six types of mods for you, so all who apply have equal chances.

NOTE: All mods must be 13-18 and have Discord (yes, you can use mobile browser if it if needed).

Good luck!

WARNING — 12 users needed.

Hey everyone! We know it’s been a bit since we’ve posted; this is because we wanted to give the blog some time without rushing our progress. We have gained a few more people, but to get the server up and running we’ll need 12 more people to follow this blog! If not, we’ll have to try again later on. We want to post this in advance, to let those who have followed know that we may postpone this.

If you’d like to know more about what you’re following, look at our blog!

May 10!

May 10 !

May 10 …

[500 INTERNAL SERVER ERROR]

Uh oh! It looks like we haven’t made enough people interested in our projects yet!

This must be fixed…

Or this entire server will crash.

Warning: System requires 25 active user connections to prevent shutdown by May 15th. We are currently at 11. Please reblog to boost the signal!

[CONNECTION SECURED]

FILE INFO:

These are Haikyuu!! Themed projects run by @kodzukens-streams and @tabsters where we create media to upload on YouTube. Post-Timeskip, usually.

USER ACCESS:

There is absolutely a place for you. Whether you want to contribute as an animator, artist, voice actor, editor, or a sound producer, we’ve got that covered! If you want to help us write, the directors (me and Tabsters) can take feedback and ideas from you! To support, anyone can join simply to watch the process and give feedback if they’d like to critique.

WORKSPACE:

We don’t have a server just yet! Our moderation applications will go out on May 15th (IF we get enough people interested in the overall projects—25 people) and then we will start officially organizing and designing the server.

DEADLINE:

As of now, the contributor audition dates are set for June. This is only a first draft and can change. We may look for some artists, animators or others a bit ahead of time, simply to help with promoting (perhaps we can make that a team).

OTHER CONCERNS:

Send us an inbox, or just DM us! Kodzuken (the director currently running this blog alone) will get to you when he has the time.

USER ASSISTANCE:

Interact with our posts, reblog, like, recommend to friends, so that this won’t go down by the 15th! We count based off followers, so be sure to follow! If you’re eager to help directly with the server management and things, you can ask us for our moderation application form through DMs!

Have a wonderful day everyone, and we hope to see you with us in the future!

May 9th! Shoutout to our new tech mod! Once we open the server up you’ll be able to meet him.

Speaking of, we do need more tech/backend mods; this server is extremely complex to set up, and I’ve been meticulously planning it out for days! If anyone who knows how to work Discord servers is willing to help, we’d be extremely grateful!

Let’s get to 25 people by May 15th! We’ve got 6 days—we’re currently at 11/25. Repost these updates, like them, promote them to your Haikyuu!! friends, and we’ll reach that goal in no time! Have a nice day!

[kztb]

May 7th (made the draft yesterday and didn’t finish til May 8th)! Here are some things about our audition process (might wanna take notes).

ME:

I don’t audition for these roles. The only time I audition is for roles that don’t have anyone suitable, or a role I’m truly confident in myself for!

I also do my best to not cast based on biases, as I want this server to be fair. We do allow help from others, HOWEVER. If you want to be a casting helper, you may not participate in the project you are casting for, or you must give up your casting role.

VOICE ACTORS:

Two waves of auditions, the first is for main cast and second is for background characters! This is due to schedule times, because yes, I’ve planned that out.

We don’t cast based off specific vocal range or gender. We cast based off if you can pull off the emotion and vibe—the range and gender is just a bonus.

ANIMATORS:

We cast based off if you can work with other people’s art styles, as well as your own.

One wave, but some people aren’t actively contributing until several weeks into the process.

ARTISTS:

Two waves for different kinds of artists—character and object artists (includes designs) and then background and landscape artists.

For character/object artists, we cast based off anatomy and accuracy! As for background/landscape artists, it’s based off how you use your tools to draw attention to the characters or objects in focus!

EDITORS:

One wave of auditions!

We’re looking for people who can clean things up and make changes so the final product will be recognizable but improved!

SOUND PRODUCERS:

One wave of auditions!

We want clean audio that matches the “vibe” of the sound! And, if you happen to be the person putting it all together, we’d like your timing to be immaculate.

Keep in mind, you can also apply for our staff and support roles! However, the list above covers everything specifically dedicated to the project production.

Also remember that we need at least twenty five people for our interest check, or we will be closing our projects until further notice. It’s not a bad thing we’ve risen all the way to ten people already. We’ve been at a stand still for a while, but we can get back up and keep up the momentum. Have a nice day!

This will be for both May 8th and May 7th, because there was a lot of writing involved.

[kztb]

Alright! Second May 6th post to make up for yesterday, I’m going on another rant about our server (these will happen until I’m out of ideas, which is, unfortunately for me, never /j).

The entire Discord server is completely tech-themed, along with some volleyball aspects. All channels are named after actual researched tech terms so it doesn’t just look like “Rules,” “General,” “Announcements,” and boring stuff like that. We’ve named those channels “code-syntax,” “sandbox” and “software-updates,” respectively.

Yes, the entire server is set up like that, and also yes, I am setting (aha aha i’m a setter get it? no? okay just me guys… [i’m actually a lib]) these names by researching.

If you’ve got any ideas for those, be sure to comment here or send us an ask!

[kztb]

May 6th! I know I missed May 5th, but that was because I had a performance yesterday—I stayed at my school a total of 12 hours (7am-7pm), then I had to clean my house and get ready for bed. To make up for that, I’m posting twice today!

If I miss a post, I’ll do my best to make up for it. Everyone’s lives are chaotic (at least, around my age), and times mine by 5 because I’ve got ADHD. Running this thing on pure hyper focus, so please bear with me. Thank you all!

[kztb]

Staff Application Release Date

Currently, we’re planning to send out the form on May 15th! You are free to ask for the link in DMs now, however, please keep in mind that we might not get into action right away if not enough people show interest.

We’re aiming for around 25 staff members because these projects require a lot of manpower! If we don't hit that number, we’ll hold off on starting and push promotions on other platforms to get the word out.

We’ll make daily updates here regarding our progress and projects. Stay tuned!

[kztb]

I just realized I said 25 staff members, sorry about that! I meant normal members/followers. Right off the bat, we do not need 25 staff members. Sorry for the misunderstanding!

Yes, me and my amazing communication skills (/j) have flaws.
