Frequently Asked Questions

What is DeepCutsArchive?
DeepCutsArchive is a community-driven archive of rare, hard-to-find clips. We collect and curate footage that most people have never seen — preserving it one clip at a time.
Is DeepCutsArchive free to use?
Yes, completely free. You can browse, watch, and share every clip without an account. Creating a free account lets you like clips, track what you've watched, submit clips, and request artists.
Where does the footage come from?
Clips are embedded from public video platforms like YouTube, TikTok, and Facebook. We don't host any video files — we link to the original source. Our discovery system automatically finds rare footage, and community members submit clips they find.
How do I submit a clip?
Go to the Submit page, paste the video URL (YouTube, TikTok, Facebook, or Instagram), add the artist name and a short description of why the clip is special, then hit submit.

All submissions are reviewed before going live to keep the archive focused on genuinely rare, interesting footage.

You can also use the Chrome Extension to submit clips with one click while browsing.
How long does it take for a submitted clip to appear?
Most submissions are reviewed within a few hours. If your clip meets our guidelines, it will appear on the site with your contributor credit.
Can I request an artist that isn't in the archive?
Yes! Go to the Request page and enter the name. We'll research and add them to the archive with clips and background info.
A video on the site is broken or has been removed. What should I do?
Videos occasionally get taken down by their original uploaders or copyright holders. We run automated checks to detect and remove broken clips, but some may slip through. If you find a broken video, please email us at the address below and include the clip URL. We'll remove it promptly.
How do I create an account?
Go to the Login page and sign up with Google, Facebook, or email and password. An account lets you like clips, track watched clips, submit footage, and appear on the Contributors page.
I forgot my password. How do I reset it?
Go to the Login page and click “Forgot password?”. Enter your email address and we'll send you a reset link. If you signed up with Google or Facebook, you don't have a password — just click the Google/Facebook button to log in.
Can I browse by genre, decade, or artist?
Yes! The archive is organised in multiple ways:

By decade
By genre
By artist — alphabetical directory
By tag
Browse all — filter and sort the complete archive
How do I share a clip?
Every clip page has share buttons for X (Twitter), Facebook, Reddit, WhatsApp, Telegram, and a copy link option. On mobile, you can also use your device's native share menu.
I'm a rights holder and want a clip removed.
We respect copyright and will promptly remove any clip at the request of the rights holder. Please email us at the address below with the clip URL and your relationship to the content. We typically respond within 24 hours.
Can I use DeepCutsArchive content in my own project?
The clips on DeepCutsArchive are embedded from public video platforms — we don't own or host the footage. If you want to use a specific clip, you'll need to contact the original uploader or rights holder. Our site content (descriptions, bios, etc.) should not be reproduced without permission.
