Faceless 3D reels, without your face.

Collect the information

Before any tool, get clear on two things: what you want the audience to take away, and who you are making it for. Gather the facts, dates and numbers you want in the video. Whatever you put in is what the script will be built on.

Write the script with AI

Use ChatGPT, Claude or any AI tool you like. Don't just give it a topic. The quality of the script depends on the context you give: your content, your audience, the video length, the kind of hook, the storytelling style and the call to action. Here is a prompt you can copy (the details in brackets are examples, change them):

Write a voiceover script for a faceless explainer Reel.

Topic: [the story or topic and the key facts]
Audience: [who will watch it]
Length: [about 45 seconds]
Language: [English / Manglish / Malayalam]
Hook: start with a question that names the mystery
Style: simple storytelling, short sentences
Call to action: end by asking people to comment "[your keyword]"

Use only the facts I gave you. Do not invent numbers.

The first picture is what not to do: a topic with no audience, length or hook gives a generic script.

Make the voiceover in ElevenLabs

Open ElevenLabs, pick a voice that suits your topic, paste your script and generate the voiceover. Download it as an mp3. You'll give this file to Claude in step 6.

There is a free plan, but the credits are limited. If you need more, choose a paid plan. Already have your own voice recording? You can use that instead.

Plan what to show in each scene

A voiceover alone isn't a video. Every sentence needs a visual. Ask ChatGPT or Claude to go through your script line by line and say what to show and how the camera should move.

Here is my script: [paste script]

Go line by line and tell me, for each sentence:
- what to show on screen
- how the camera should move
- the one keyword to show in big text

Keep a new scene every 4 to 5 seconds.

If key objects or ideas matter (a building, a map, a product), have a reference image ready for each. Object, style and colour references all help.

Install the 3D skill in Claude

This is the skill you download here. It is a folder called explainer-reel packed as a zip. Don't unzip it and don't zip it again; Claude needs it exactly as it downloads. It needs a paid Claude plan.

• Open Claude and go to Settings → Capabilities. Turn on Code execution and file creation.
• Turn on Allow network egress and set allowed domains to All domains. The skill downloads free tools (a 3D library and fonts) the first time it runs.
• Go to Customize → Skills (in some versions it's inside Settings → Capabilities), tap + or Upload skill and choose the zip.
• Make sure the skill's toggle is on.

Seeing "Zip must contain a top-level folder" or "Zip must contain a SKILL.md file"? The zip was packed again. Download a fresh copy from this page and upload it as it is.

Give Claude your voiceover and let it build

Start a new chat, upload your voiceover (mp3) and paste your script and scene plan. Then ask Claude to use the skill. Here's a prompt you can copy:

Use the explainer-reel skill to make a faceless 3D explainer reel.

Voiceover: [upload the mp3]
Script: [paste the script, one caption line per line]
Scene plan: [paste it, or ask me to plan the scenes]
Language: [English / Manglish / Malayalam]
Notes: [colours, mood, anything specific]

The skill works in three checkpoints so you don't waste your usage:

• Beat sheet. Claude shows a table of every scene: the voiceover line, the 3D world, the camera move and the big keyword. Check it and approve.
• Test frames. Claude renders a few still frames. Check that the text is readable and every number matches your script.
• Final render. You get a 1080 × 1920 video with your voiceover and quiet sound effects. A 60-second reel takes roughly 15 minutes to render. Run it as a cloud (remote) session so it keeps going when your laptop is closed.

Expect a camera that never stops moving, a big keyword typed on at the top, a caption box, counters, stamps and map pins, and a final card with your name and a comment call to action.

Ask for changes, then post

Don't like a scene? Tell Claude in plain words, for example "make the second scene night time" or "change the keyword to red". It edits the scene and re-renders. For background music, add a copyright-free track in Instagram when you post.

Before you publish: check every fact, number and date on screen against your own sources. The skill is told not to invent facts, but the final check is yours.
