How to Make Stickman Animation with AI 100% FREE (Full Course)

Summary

The video presents a beginner-friendly course on making stick-figure animation videos with AI, using two workflows. The presenter says the format is attracting large audiences and claims some channels earn more than $10,000 per month. These figures are presented as claims, not independently verified facts.

Method 1: Build the video with separate AI tools

1. Plan and write with Claude: Load a master prompt and supporting “production bible” into Claude. Claude guides the creator through choosing a niche, researching video ideas, selecting a topic and duration, and generating a script. It can also produce image prompts, animation prompts, and YouTube packaging materials.
2. Create narration with DubDub: Paste in the script, choose an AI voice, adjust settings if needed, and export the voice-over as an MP3. The tutorial recommends removing unnecessary gaps while otherwise keeping the narration clean.
3. Generate visuals with Google Flow: Use Claude’s prompts to create images in a consistent 16:9 style. Flow can also animate selected images using its image-to-video feature; the presenter recommends its faster, free-account “light” model.
4. Edit in CapCut: Place the narration on the timeline, match animated clips and still images to the relevant script sections, and add a fade-out at the end. A suggested shortcut is to animate the first 5–10 images for a more dynamic opening, then use still images with simple editing for the rest.
5. Prepare the upload: Claude can generate a title, description, tags, and thumbnail prompt.

Method 2: Generate and edit in Vsub

The second workflow uses Claude for niche selection, topic ideas, and scriptwriting, then moves the script into Vsub’s AI Video V3 feature. Vsub offers stickman templates—including the “stickman ancient” style used in the example—and can automatically create scenes, narration, and an edited video.

The tutorial highlights options to:

• Choose a voice or upload a voice-over.
• Edit or regenerate individual images.
• Animate selected images, with Pro mode recommended for potentially better results.
• Adjust scene timing and narration volume, add sound effects, apply filters, and enable or customize captions.
• Export as an MP4, with 60 fps and 4K available as options. Lower resolutions can save credits.

The presenter keeps the example relatively simple, animating only the opening scenes and omitting music, transitions, captions, and extra effects. They describe Vsub as the faster workflow while recommending the first method as a sufficient starting point for beginners.
