Just ask

Say the word, it runs.

The skill fires on natural requests like these. No commands to memorize.

“Make a stickman ad for my brand”“Turn this script into a stick-figure explainer”“Create a kinetic line-animation video”“Make a doodle-style comic video”

The pipeline

What the skill does for you.

1
Pick the theme and format
The skill reads the brand and asks for the theme (white canvas with black figures, or black canvas with white figures) and the aspect ratio. The brand color becomes one of up to three accent colors, each with a single meaning.
2
Approve the director's proposal
Narration, then one row per 10-second clip: three timed beats, at least four visual devices, camera moves, sound effects, and the exact state each clip hands to the next. Nothing renders until you approve it.
3
Draw the opening frames
One flat line-art frame per clip, anchored on the first so line weight and proportions hold. Each frame is both the start of its clip and the landing point of the clip before it.
4
Animate clip to clip
Every clip is animated from its own frame and lands on the next one, so transitions happen in-camera. Prompts hold the flat look, forbid on-screen text, and keep clips free of voices.
5
Narrate, score, and compose
One narrator reads each clip's line on its visuals, music follows the emotional turn, overlays are added as crisp text, and an optional on-twos snap finishes the limited-animation feel.

Bundled references

The playbook.

Each skill ships with reference docs the agent loads on demand, so the craft is baked in.

director-proposal.md

Story patterns, the three-beat visual-density recipe, transition interfaces, composition by aspect ratio, and the proposal format.

storyboard-prompts.md

Light and dark style locks, the opening-frame scaffold, the flat product prop, and frame QA.

animate-prompts.md

The clip contract for Gemini Omni Flash 1.1: frame hold, timed beats, landing state, and negatives within 2000 characters.

audio-and-gotchas.md

Per-clip narration, music, the composition call with overlays and cadence, and a symptom-to-fix table.

example.md

One worked example: proposal excerpt, an opening frame, two clip prompts, and the composition call.

Honest limits

What to watch for.

The visual system is intentionally strict: a flat monochrome canvas, faceless line-art figures, and at most three accent colors.
Generated frames and clips carry no words; any on-screen phrase is added as an overlay in the composition.
End-frame landings are close but not frame-exact, so a seam can need a small trim in the editor.
Narration is generated separately; video clips stay voice-free so the narrator never changes between clips.
