Clipping, aka sharing highlights of your live stream on social media, is a great way to amplify your reach and reel in new viewers. Mastering this art can turn ordinary live streams into powerful tools for brand growth and viewer engagement.
How to Choose Clips for Social
If you’re unsure how to choose which clips are share-worthy, below are some tips to help you.
Leverage Analytics
With StreamBee (now seamlessly integrated into Streamlabs Desktop and available for Ultra subscribers via the Streamlabs App Store), you have a powerful analytics tool at your fingertips. It acts as your guide through your content, pinpointing moments where your audience was most engaged. Analytics help you zero in on your stream's most captivating minutes or seconds, perfect for clipping and sharing.
Capture Key Moments
Your most energetic moments are like magnets on social media. That split-second win, a burst of laughter, or a heated debate can captivate viewers. These sorts of snippets often cut through the noise of social feeds. Moments that stir emotions, such as joy or surprise, resonate with viewers (including those who didn’t experience it in real-time).
Spotlight Community Engagement
Parts of your stream where viewers actively participate are social media gold. These highlights, featuring live reactions or shoutouts, spotlight the community aspect of your channel, making them perfect for sharing. Even in the digital world, people enjoy being in spaces with high interaction and higher energy.
Embrace the Unexpected
Life's unplanned moments can become viral sensations. These clips, like an unlikely in-game occurrence or a funny mishap, have attention-grabbing charm.
