Streamer clipping campaign brief template
Stream clipping rewards the most extreme moments, and that is exactly where brand-safety problems start. Platforms also cut reach for identical reposts. This brief keeps clippers on approved streams, own edits and safe moments.
Why this brief is written this way
"The most clippable moment is the most extreme, so it rewards harm with reach." The brand-safety list is explicit.

Clipper content elsewhere can be "violent, sexual, racist", so the brief also bans posting on accounts that publish it.
Source: ListenFirst (2026-07-22)
"A good clipping campaign isn’t 100 accounts posting the same video with slightly different captions", and YouTube now favours original Shorts.

The brief
Replace the [bracketed] parts with your own details. The starter rate, budget, cap and keep-live period are suggestions; change them to suit you.
[Creator] — stream highlight clips Cut 15–60 second vertical clips of funny, skilful or surprising moments from our streams. Add your own hook text and captions. Approved source videos (clip only from these): [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOUR_VIDEO_ID — replace with your links] Do not clip moments involving other streamers' content unless they appear on our stream with permission. Call to action: show "@[channel] — live [days/times]" and put [your channel link] in your bio. Campaign rules (every clip must follow these): - Pay: $1.00 per 1,000 verified views. Total budget $300. - Disclosure: every post must say it is paid. Turn on the platform's paid-partnership / branded-content label AND write #ad (or "Paid partnership with [brand]") in the caption or on screen. Don't present yourself as an unpaid fan or customer. - Music: use original audio or a track from the platform's Commercial Music Library / business sound library only. No trending or label-owned songs, even if the app lets you add them. - No watermarks: no personal watermark, handle overlay or editing-app logo on the video. Clips with a watermark are rejected and not paid. - Footage: use only our footage from the approved videos. Don't add TV, film, sports or other creators' clips, memes or stock footage you don't have the rights to. - Keep it live: each paid post must stay public for at least 60 days after it is paid. Posts deleted, archived or made private before then break the campaign rules. - Real views only: don't buy views, likes, comments or followers, use bots or engagement pods, or post from fake accounts. Only verified views are paid — views are verified before payout through several checks on a fixed schedule. - Audience: we are paying to reach viewers in [your target countries]. Post in English, and post from an account whose audience is mainly in those countries. - Cap: one creator can earn at most $50 per clip in this campaign, so the budget reaches more creators. - Brand safety: no hateful, sexual, violent, political or shock content, and don't post this campaign on accounts that publish that kind of content. - Claims: only say what is on our product page. No made-up results, health, money or price claims, and don't describe using the product unless you actually have. - Rejected and not paid: clips that break any rule above, use the wrong source, or are low quality (blurry, cut-off audio, wrong aspect ratio).
