Describe the topic and the skeleton. ClipNova's Prompt to Video writes the narration, renders the same 3D skeleton scene after scene, records the voiceover and burns in word-by-word captions, ready for Shorts, Reels and TikTok.
There is no skeleton preset to click: you describe the character in your prompt, and the tools keep it consistent. Here is one Short, what happens if you only drink coffee for a week, from prompt to post.
In Prompt to Video, describe the character once, for example a friendly 3D skeleton in a grey hoodie, then the topic and the hook. Pick portrait 9:16 and leave the duration on Auto so the length follows the script. The Prompt Enhancer can turn a rough idea into a detailed prompt.
Choose Moving AI Images and set the image quality to Pro or Ultra: those tiers keep recurring characters the same across scenes, so your skeleton doesn't change from shot to shot. On Base, characters may vary. Reuse the same character description in every video and your channel gets one recognisable host.
Switch on narration and ClipNova writes the voiceover from your topic, sized to the video; you pick the voice. Captions are transcribed from the voice and burned in, each word lighting up as it is spoken, the signature look of the format. Add a background track if you want one.
The scenes, voice and captions come back as one 9:16 video for YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels and TikTok. Keep the prompt, swap the topic and make the next episode.
Skeleton Shorts are a faceless format: a 3D skeleton acts out a fact, a what-if or a body-science question while a narrator explains it and bold captions pop word by word. There is no face to film and no voice to record, which is why the format spread across Shorts, Reels and TikTok.
The hard part is consistency. A skeleton that changes shape every scene looks cheap. ClipNova keeps the character stable with the Pro and Ultra image tiers, writes the narration from your topic and syncs the captions to it, so every Short looks like it came from the same channel.
The format works for health facts, history, what-would-happen questions, money tips and dark humour. Change the topic in the prompt, keep the skeleton description, and generate the next episode.
What happens to your body without sleep, sugar or water, told by a skeleton who lives it.
A skeleton in period costume walks through a historical event in under a minute.
Budget mistakes, habits and life advice delivered by a deadpan skeleton host.
Short scary stories or dark jokes for Halloween and late-night scrollers.
A short vertical video in which a 3D skeleton character acts out a fact or a story while a voiceover explains it and captions appear word by word. It is a popular faceless format on YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels and TikTok.
No. You describe the skeleton in your prompt, for example a friendly 3D skeleton in a grey hoodie, and Prompt to Video renders it. Reuse the same description in every video to keep your host recognisable.
Use Moving AI Images with Pro or Ultra image quality; those tiers keep recurring characters the same across scenes. The Base tier costs less, but characters may change.
Most run 30 to 60 seconds. Leave the duration on Auto and the length follows the narration, or set it yourself, up to 5 minutes.
A voiceover narrates over the scenes, which is how the format usually works. ClipNova writes the script from your topic, or reads the one you paste, in the voice you pick.
