How to turn a livestream into videos and shorts

To turn a livestream into videos and shorts, mark the best segments, cut each into its own video with a cold open and chapters, then cut the strongest exchanges into vertical shorts. One stream can fill a week of uploads.

1. Mark the moments

Note timestamps for heated exchanges, good callers and strong guest answers while you stream, or right after.

2. Cut the long videos

Each strong segment becomes its own video. Keep debates whole rather than splitting them by topic.

3. Add a cold open

Put the most heated moment first, a few seconds long.

4. Cut the shorts

Hook line first, then the full exchange, under three minutes.

5. Package and schedule

Title, thumbnail, description and chapters, then spread the uploads across the week.
