Clipping Guidelines
♿️ Accessibility
VTuber clippers of any size are FREE to monetize their clips across various platforms as long as they adhere to these guidelines.
⚠️ Important Notes & Definitions ⚠️
- Captions in various languages help make clips more accessible to HOH and Deaf viewers as well as anyone else that needs and/or wants captioning. ♿️
- HOH is an abbreviation that stands for folks who are hard of hearing.
- deaf refers to people that are deaf but don’t identify culturally as deaf.
- Deaf refers to people who identify culturally as deaf and are active in the Deaf community.
- Captions and subtitles are defined differently in the US.
- Captions are audio to text.
- Subtitles are translations of the audio into text.
✅ Captioning Tips
- Use sans-serif and/or mono font types, such as Roboto Mono or Lexend.
- Always display captions on screen for more than a split second.
- You should only apply one of these text effects to reflect color contrast.
- An opaque, black background sitting behind the white captions.
- A black outline around them with the font being in a light color.
- Captions are not meant for the clipper(s), but instead for d/Deaf and HOH people who otherwise wouldn’t be able to watch the video content.
- Make sure your captions are professional and readable for the audience.
- That means transcribing what is actually said in the original video.
- Don’t just edit AI-generated captions and call it a deal.
- Don’t add emojis & unrelated jokes into your captions.
- That means transcribing what is actually said in the original video.
🎨 Artwork Usage
- It’s okay to use any images of her VTuber models in videos & thumbnails.
- Feel free to reach out to Aiyoku via DMs on Discord to obtain them.
- Ask for permission from artists before using any of their fanart for clips!
- If they’re unreachable by any means, refrain from including the art.
🙄 Drama & Misuse
- Avoid intentional misuse of clips taken from both solo & collaborative content featuring Aiyoku as much as possible.
- This is directed at clippers that don’t actively misrepresent her.
- The only exception(s) to this are longer clips like the Unusual VTuber Memes Compilation by TinyTuberClips.
- Spreading hearsay & gossip without providing any prior context is NOT okay.
📺 Sharing & Uploading
- Don’t re-upload ANY clips without permission from the original clipper(s)!
- Anyone can share both edited & translated clips in Aiyoku’s Fanbase.
- There is a dedicated text chat under 💐 Fan Content for them.
