Example prompt
Use the investigation-director skill to make a 90-second film answering how we know [a historical fact], from the original records, with each page on screen.
Style prompt (Claude Motion or Opus 5.5)
Make a 90-second 16:9 visual investigation answering [one question about a historical event] from its primary records: each record on screen tagged with its page, the words that matter highlighted as they are said, a clock, evidence that fails set aside with the reason, what was recorded kept apart from what was inferred, and the sources on the last frame for [who will watch, e.g. people who have heard the story but not the record]. Use only the documents I give below, quoted exactly; don't change a word or number. End on the answer the record supports, held for 3 seconds.
Nothing to install: paste this into Claude Motion (Team or Enterprise) or give it to Opus 5.5 for a similar look. The result changes from run to run; the skill works from your own material and renders on your computer.
