Caveman stickman scenes drawn in Clippie.
How to make a “how did humans invent” video. Four steps.
- 1
Pick one invention or discovery
Doors, pillows, soap, bricks, sugar, silver. One thing per video, told from the first humans who needed it to the version we use now.
- 2
Write a long script in chapters
Generate up to 10 minutes per chapter with the AI writer and join them, or paste your own 25 to 35 minute script. Clippie splits it into scenes.
- 3
Open the Caveman stickman template
Stickman cavemen in bright prehistoric scenes, in 16:9. Normal pacing holds each scene for 5 to 8 seconds, which suits long videos.
- 4
Animate everything, narrate and export
One prompt animates every scene in parallel, free on any paid plan, so 300 scenes is not 300 jobs. Add a narrator and captions and export.

Frequently asked questions.
What style are Neon Rush videos?
Despite the “3D” in the handle, the videos are 2D: stickman cavemen with round white heads, messy hair and fur in bright cartoon scenes, telling how humans invented or discovered everyday things over 25 to 35 minutes. Clippie’s Caveman stickman template is the closest look.
Can Clippie make 30-minute stickman videos?
Yes, from a script you paste. The AI writer drafts up to 10 minutes at a time, so write longer videos in chapters. The length limit is the export minutes on your plan.
How many scenes is a 30-minute video?
With Normal pacing each scene holds for 5 to 8 seconds, so roughly 225 to 360 scenes. Clippie draws all of them from the script, and one prompt animates them all.
Is Clippie affiliated with Neon Rush?
No. Clippie is not affiliated with or endorsed by Neon Rush, and the samples on this page were made in Clippie, not taken from the channel. Use the format as inspiration: write your own stories, create your own character, and never re-upload or copy someone else’s videos, scripts or characters.
How much does it cost to make a stickman video?
Bare stickman, Caveman stickman, Doodle explainer and Painted stickman scenes are drawn by AI image models and use AI credits per scene, and you see the total before you generate. Classic stickman is a Clippie style included in your plan. Animating scenes is free on any paid plan, and exporting uses your plan’s export minutes.
Can I monetize these videos on YouTube?
The images, voice and captions are generated for you, so there is no copyrighted footage to get flagged. YouTube still rewards original work, so write or edit your own script, check your facts and add your own angle.
