A 4-5 minute cinematic film about the Battle of Austerlitz, coded entirely by Opus 5.5 (engine, soldiers, score, voice) using real satellite terrain data and reference paintings, from one detailed prompt.

Create a 4–5 minute cinematic video about the Battle of Austerlitz (1805), built entirely in code.

Research the battle thoroughly and decide for yourself how to tell the story, structure the pacing, explain the strategy, and visualize the events. I want it to be historically accurate, dramatic, easy to understand, and visually exceptional.

Use the attached paintings as visual inspiration, not a strict style requirement. I love their scale, atmosphere, smoke, dramatic skies, cavalry, massed formations, landscape, and sense of chaos. Find a way to translate that feeling into code — but if you can invent a stronger visual language, do it.

Don't make it feel like a generic infographic or strategy game. It should feel like a cinematic historical film that happens to be rendered with code.

You have complete creative control. Surprise me.
