Epic History Chronology Video Prompt

Complex prompt for Claude Opus 5.5 to render an epic chronology video 'History of Chinese Civilization' using code frame-by-frame and ffmpeg, featuring specific musical evolution, alternating art styles (paper line drawing vs gold on black), calligraphy keywords, and HUD elements.

Prompt

Create an epic chronology film 'History of Chinese Civilization', which can be rendered frame-by-frame via code and then composited using ffmpeg. Use music as a clock: pentatonic scale, instruments evolving from bone flutes and bianzhong bells to orchestral, BPM accelerating with the era, all cuts hitting the beat. Alternate between two art styles: white line drawings on Xuan paper and gold-on-black; each volume has a main color and a set of patterns evolving with the times (painted pottery pattern → Taotie pattern → cloud pattern → scroll grass pattern → interlocking branch pattern → fret pattern). Each shot features a large calligraphy keyword appearing by phrase, accompanied by a line drawing sketch. Full-film HUD: vermilion seal volume number top-left, vertical dynasty name right side, scroll timeline and year counter at bottom. Use impact transitions between volumes with a vermilion seal stamping down and heavy drum/bell strikes. First define the beat grid and storyboard table, then render. Maps should only be schematic; do not draw real modern figures; verify dates before delivery.
