Clipping campaigns for streamers and creators
A streamer or creator clipping campaign pays clippers per 1,000 views to cut your streams and videos into short clips and post them on their own TikTok, Reels and Shorts accounts, each one pointing back to your channel. It is how the biggest streamers run their clip channels, you approve every clip, and you can run it yourself on Try Shoot or through Clip Mansion, the verified agency.

The streamers with the biggest short-form presence rarely edit it themselves. They run a standing campaign: anyone can cut their VODs, post the clips, and get paid per 1,000 views. It turns a community into a distribution team and costs nothing on clips that don't travel.
What a creator clipping campaign is
You give clippers access to your VODs and videos, fund a budget, and set a rate per 1,000 views. They cut the moments, post from their own accounts with your handle in the caption, and submit the links. You approve the clips that represent you well, and the budget pays out against verified views. A private campaign keeps it to your own community; a public one opens it to the whole clipper pool.
What performs for creators
- The moment. The clutch, the rage, the laugh, the unexpected guest. Your community already knows which ones; let them cut.
- The lore clip. A running story across streams, cut for a newcomer. Converts viewers into followers.
- The reaction. You reacting to something topical, posted the same day.
- The best-of. A weekly compilation format from a clipper who follows every stream.
- The clip that explains you. "Who is [name]?" formats for audiences that haven't met you.
Your handle in every caption
The clip earns the clipper per view, and the follow earns you. Require your handle in the caption and, if you have one, your link in bio. Clips that leave it out are rejected with a reason and resubmitted; most clippers only need telling once.
An example brief
A standing brief for a streamer
- The one idea
- "Cut the moment from this week's streams you'd send to a friend."
- Source material
- VOD links refreshed after every stream, your logo, and a note on which segments are off limits.
- Platforms
- TikTok and YouTube Shorts. Shorts feeds your main channel directly.
- Format
- Under 60 seconds, captions, your handle in the caption, no watermark from other clip channels.
- Hard nos
- No clips of banned or sensitive segments, no doxxing of chatters, no edits that change what you said, no reposts of other clippers' edits.
- Payout
- A rate per 1,000 views with a per-clip cap and a weekly top-clip bonus, running until the budget is spent and then topped up.
What it costs
Creator campaigns run on entertainment volume, so rates sit low and the budget is best thought of as a monthly figure you top up as the clips prove themselves.
Market context, not a quote
Across the market, per-view rates commonly sit somewhere between roughly $1 and $5 per 1,000 views, and they vary a lot by niche, platform and how competitive the brief is. Treat that as context, not a quote: the rate that matters is the one you set.
The numbers that are fixed
- Minimum budget on Try Shoot
- $500, funded before any clip can earn. Unspent budget comes back to your wallet when you end the campaign.
- Platform fee
- 7%, charged as creators are paid and on any unspent budget returned to you.
- Benchmark
- Clip Mansion's Mischief mobile app launch: 22.4M verified views in 48 hours at a $0.28 effective CPM, against a paid-social benchmark of $15.
- Retainers and setup fees
- None, on either route. Self-serve is pay-per-view against your budget; Clip Mansion bills per 1,000 verified views against a cap you set.
How to measure it
Cost per 1,000 views tells you how efficiently the campaign turns budget into attention. It cannot tell you whether the attention is worth anything; that needs a downstream number you track yourself.
- Follower and subscriber growth on your own accounts in the weeks the campaign runs.
- Average viewers and new chatters on stream.
- Which clippers and formats carried it, so you can brief them directly.
- Cost per verified view, to tune the rate between top-ups.
Mistakes that cost creator campaigns
- Running it as a one-off. The value is the standing stream of clips.
- Not refreshing VOD links, so clippers cut last month's streams.
- Rejecting clips for being unflattering. The clip that makes you look human is the one that travels.
- Letting approvals pile up. Your community is watching the queue.
