Video Overview
Script: Imagine a world where sailors navigated by the stars alone. Then came a spoon-shaped magnet, changing everything. This was the first compass, invented in ancient China. It wasn’t used for navigation at first but for divination, to predict fortunes. Slowly, its potential dawned on explorers, turning the tides of history. Picture this: a simple spoon guiding ships through uncharted waters. The compass didn’t just show direction; it charted new worlds and connected continents. Who knew a humble spoon could reshape the globe?
Custom instruction: 1) Blocks & Shots: Open with an animated night sky full of stars. Transition to a close-up of a spoon-shaped magnet. Show ancient Chinese landscapes and seafaring ships.
