My clipping (skills? is this a skill?) have come up several times the past couple of weeks. Decided to capture some thoughts on how and why I clip on Twitch the way I do. 1/10
There are 3 main reasons I& #39;ll click the Clip button on Twitch:
1 - It made me laugh or react
2 - It made chat laugh or react*
3 - Wild card**

*See S9E8 of @RivalsWaterdeep. Many things happened I wanted to clip so I was behind the live show. I used the cast & chat reactions on a 2nd screen since I was behind to decide if I should click "clip" w/ 10 clips open.

**Wild card aka being a marketer. Moments that don& #39;t stand out but serve a purpose.
Ex: a natural product callout (cc @urbanbohemian). Experience from my day job basically. For streamers, it supports their work w/ companies. 4/10 https://clips.twitch.tv/GleamingThankfulLardRiPepperonis-_iTfr0WmkSaEWBwm">https://clips.twitch.tv/GleamingT...

It& #39;s fun (and funny!) to clip as well as a great way to support a creator!
Make their life easier: in a 2+ hour stream, remembering when a 5 second thing happened & *finding* it again is hard. Viewers and mods that clip or set stream markers help a lot! 5/10

As a mod, it& #39;s another way to support. With Rivals, there& #39;s a group of mods online & several who are better + faster at comment moderation. I bring more to the team by engaging chat to keep the conversation flowing or (surprise!) clipping. All are equally valuable. 6/10
I also, on average, generate longer clips in the 45-60 second range. There& #39;s two reasons:
1 - Give context for the 3-5 second thing that caught my attention.
2 - A clip already reduces what a content creator has to look at. They can decide what to use from there.

Curation is also important! Clicking the clip button doesn& #39;t mean I name OR share it.
- Was there actually something there to clip?
- Sometimes I clip and then on a second watch, have to ask: is this a clip I want to share w/ chat, Discord, the streamer?

I revisit my "clips I& #39;ve created" page and review everything. If I hit the clip button but didn& #39;t name or share it? DELETE. Obviously wasn& #39;t a good one & I don& #39;t want to clog the streamer& #39;s "clips of my channel" page. They& #39;ve got enough to think about.

Which all nets out to the fact that sometimes a clip is nonsensical because yes, it made me laugh. But generally I& #39;m deliberate in what I clip b/c I see how it can be used, both for my own entertainment & for how it helps a streamer. FIN
