Making these work in streaming & twitch

• Caption every word. Most scrollers watch muted, and a streamer clip without captions is just a person laughing at silence.
• Your Twitch name goes in the first comment or a small end card, not watermarked across the clip. Overbranded clips read as ads and get scrolled.
• Cut dead air inside sentences, not just between them. A 40-second stream moment usually survives as 22 seconds without losing the joke.
• Answer one streamer question on camera every stream. It doubles as short-form material and makes you findable in the aspiring-streamer corner of the niche.
