How long does a daily stick-figure skit series with a recurring cast take?

This one took 1 business day per episode, counted from the moment we had what we needed. Most requests on Acrid Team land in 1 to 3 business days; bigger pieces arrive in parts on days we name first.

How does the video allowance work?

Footage generated from scratch by AI is the only thing that counts: three minutes a month on Founding, five on Standard, and $99 a minute beyond that. Video cut from your own clips, stock footage, screen recordings or motion graphics never counts, and most explainers and ads are made mostly from those.

Daily stick-figure skit series with a recurring cast

Our own daily stick-figure comedy series: a recurring cast, one real small-business headache per episode, 15 to 40 seconds, captions synced word by word, posted daily to every platform. Our work, not a client result; yours would star your business.

Rea reason to watch us every day

we need a reason for people to watch us every day, not just when we post an offer.

short, funny, stick figures. same characters every time so people get attached. the joke is always a real small-business headache: the question nobody answered at midnight, the agency that promised page one, the new hire who "knows computers."

one a day, every platform. sell softly: two out of three are just comedy, every third one ends on a card.

This one is ours: our own daily series on our own channel. No client, no client result. The work below is real.

Rea reason to watch us every day

Understood: a daily animated short with a recurring cast, one premise per episode taken from a real owner headache, 15 to 40 seconds, the hook in the first two seconds, a hard punchline. Two of three pure comedy with a small sign-off; every third ends on a "want one about YOUR business?" card.

What we will send: each episode as a 9:16 Short and a 16:9 cut, voices, word-synced captions, a finished cover at frame 0, the post text for each platform, and a contact sheet so you can check every half second before it goes out.

What we need: nothing. The cast and the headache list are set up once; after that it runs daily.

Lands: one episode a day.

Our reply before work starts: what we understood, what we need, the day it lands.

The result

A running series. Each episode: a script with one premise from the headache list, the cast drawn and animated from code (stick figures with real poses, line boil, squash and stretch), character voices, captions synced word by word, a cover frame that works as the thumbnail, both aspect ratios, post text for YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, X, LinkedIn and Facebook, and a contact sheet. Every episode is watched end to end and checked against the script before it posts. The first three: a one-star review at midnight, the agency's page-one promise, and Kyle answering one email.

Ep 1, One star at midnight: a customer asks a question at 11:52 PM. Nobody answers. By 11:58 it is a one-star review.
Ep 2, Page one, they said: the agency promised page one of Google. The owner finds himself on page nine, under a soup recipe.
Ep 3, Kyle answered one email: the new hire who "knows computers" is asked to answer one customer email. It does not go well.
The contact sheet every episode gets before it posts: one frame every half second, checked against the script.

What it took

Built the cast and the drawing rig once, wrote a bank of real owner headaches, and set up the daily loop: write the episode, animate it, voice it, caption it, check it frame by frame, then post it everywhere with the link. The characters are cartoons; no real business or customer is ever in the story.

Usually next: The usual next request is a series starring your own business: your customers' headaches, your own recurring characters, your link on the card, posted daily or a batch of 10 to schedule yourself.

This is our own series on our own channel, shown as a sample of the format; it is not a client result. The cast (Dave, Kyle and the rest) is made up, and the headaches are the ones owners tell us about. The voices are synthetic; every frame is drawn from code, not generated.
