Chronicle Animation of Chinese Civilization

An epic chronicle short film, "Chronicle of Chinese Civilization," rendered frame by frame in code and assembled with ffmpeg. Two visual styles alternate — ink linework on rice paper and gold-on-black clay — with each volume given its own main color and a motif that evolves with the era. Every shot pairs a large calligraphic keyword with a line drawing, and the whole film carries a vermilion seal volume number, vertical dynasty names, and a scroll time-ruler HUD. Pentatonic score, cuts on the beat. About 3 min 37 sec — suited to history explainers and cultural brand films.
