Faceless videos, made by AI in minutes.

What counts as a faceless video

A faceless video is one where you never appear on camera and usually never speak. The voice is generated, the visuals are generated images, gameplay or stock-style footage, and captions carry the words. The format took over short-form video because it removes the two things that stop most people from posting: filming themselves and editing.

The channels that grow with it are built on a repeatable format rather than a personality: a Reddit story every day, a would you rather a day, a stickman explainer a week. Clippie has an editor for each of those formats, so the work is choosing the idea, not assembling the video.

The formats, and who each one suits

Start with the one closest to what you already watch. Each link opens a page with samples and a guide.

• AI story videos: Any script, narrated, with an AI image or animated scene for every sentence. 43 looks from stickman and creepy cartoon to cinematic and Ghibli-style. The most flexible format and the one most Clippie creators use.
• Reddit story videos: Paste a Reddit post or your own story. The post card appears, a narrator reads it and captions follow over Minecraft, Subway Surfers or GTA gameplay.
• Fake text story videos: A conversation that plays out message by message in iMessage, WhatsApp, Instagram or Tinder styling, with a voice for each side.
• Would you rather videos: Two options, a countdown, then the percentages. The AI writes the questions and draws a picture for each option, and the editor opens without an account.
• Roblox rant videos: An opinion read by an AI voice over Roblox gameplay from a library of 171 clips, with bold captions.
• Split screen videos: A podcast clip, stream moment or commentary on top, gameplay below, auto captions between them.
• Stickman videos: The stick-figure explainer and survival format, drawn and animated by AI, in Shorts and long 16:9 versions.
• Top 5 and ranking videos: Countdowns from your own clips with a ranked list on screen, a voiceover and a bass hit between entries.
• Long-form YouTube videos: Ten-minute 16:9 scripts with a scene for every line, for history, true crime, finance and documentary channels.

Getting the script right

Every format starts with words. In the AI story and rant editors the script writer takes an idea, a length from 30 seconds to 10 minutes, a theme and a tone, and returns a draft you can edit line by line. The would you rather editor writes questions from a prompt. The Reddit editor takes a pasted post. If you already have a script, paste it; nothing is rewritten unless you ask.

The first two seconds decide whether the video is watched. Open with the conflict, the question or the claim, not the setup. Short-form scripts run about 2.5 words a second, so a 45-second video is roughly 110 words.

Choosing a voice

Clippie ships 125 picked voices, and the voice picker searches the ElevenLabs voice library live, so there is a voice for a horror narrator, a Reddit storyteller, a kids cartoon and a finance explainer. Speed and pitch are adjustable, and any single line can be regenerated without redoing the rest. Prefer your own voice? Upload a recording and the editor transcribes it for captions.

Visuals: generated scenes or gameplay

Story formats generate a picture for every sentence in the look you pick, and can animate each scene. Gameplay formats use the background library: 417 clips across Roblox, Minecraft, Subway Surfers, GTA, Fortnite, Temple Run, Mario Kart and cooking, in 9:16 and 16:9. Paid plans can upload their own footage. Gameplay should be visually busy and emotionally neutral, so the voice carries the story and the eye has something to follow.

Captions that keep people watching

Most short-form video is watched without sound at first, so captions are not optional. The editors generate word-timed captions in 104 languages, with 17 styles that highlight the word being spoken. Keep them in the middle third of the frame, away from the platform UI at the bottom, and keep each caption to a few words.

Exporting and publishing

Exports are 1080x1920 at 30 fps, or 1920x1080 for 16:9 videos, with no watermark on the format editors. Post the same format on TikTok, Reels and Shorts rather than tailoring each; the differences in what performs are smaller than the cost of making three versions. Faceless channels grow on consistency: one format, one posting time, the same look, for at least thirty videos before judging it.
