Twitch Clip Editing Guide
How do you shorten a Twitch clip while retaining the setup that makes the reaction understandable?
Concrete example
Example: a 33-second strategy-game clip containing the callout, opponent move, response and final reaction.
Reproducible edit
Keep the callout before the action, trim waiting time without reordering events, lower unrelated background speech and end after the result is visible.
