The Clipping Starter Kit

How paid clipping works, what you're allowed to clip, and the hooks, captions and trackers to do it every week.

For streamers who want clips of their own streams, and for clippers who cut for creators and campaigns. Made by Joshua Bostic, the solo founder of SocialMate.

What's inside

• How paid clipping campaigns usually work, and ten questions to answer before you start one
• The rules that protect your accounts: permission, music, saying when a post is paid, real accounts and no bought views
• 20 kinds of moments to look for, and how to find them fast in a long stream
• An edit checklist for every clip, from the format to the last watch-through on your phone
• 40 on-screen hooks in five styles: curiosity, stakes, reaction, tips and funny
• 10 caption templates, with credit and disclosure built in
• 3 worksheets: a campaign tracker, a clip log and a weekly routine
• 25 pages, US Letter size

Good to know

• No earnings promises. Rates and rules vary by campaign and change often, so the kit shows you what to check, not what you'll make.
• Use the hooks, templates and worksheets in your own work, including paid work. Please don't resell or share the file itself.
• Instant download: your link arrives by email within a minute of checkout.
• 25% of every sale goes to SM-Give, the give-back fund behind SocialMate.
• It's a digital download, so all sales are final.
