Here is a descriptive breakdown of the opening five minutes of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, tailored for someone who cannot see the video.

0:00 – 0:48: The Void and The Voice

  • Setup and background, colors: The video begins in total darkness. The background is a pitch-black void. Gradually, faint, mysterious light begins to pierce the dark.
  • What is moving, what appears: Simple white text appears silently: "Nintendo Presents," followed by "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild." Afterward, abstract points of light flare horizontally across the screen like a lens flare, growing brighter and sharper.
  • What objects in this scene and what is happening: There are no physical objects yet. A soft, female voice echoes from the darkness, whispering urgently. She says, "Open your eyes." As the light intensifies into a blinding white starburst, the voice repeats, "Open your eyes... Wake up, Link." The screen floods with a washing white light that fades into a soft, hazy yellow. 0:49 – 1:45: The Shrine of Resurrection
  • Setup and background, colors: The scene transitions to a deep, aquatic blue. We are inside a dimly lit, cavernous room with ancient, geometric patterns on the walls. The dominant color is a neon, "tech" blue against dark stone.
  • What is moving, what appears: We see a young man (Link) floating suspended in a pool of glowing blue liquid. As the liquid drains away rapidly, the glow fades. Link wakes up, gasping for air. He sits up, shivering slightly.
  • What objects in this scene and what is happening: Link is the central figure—he has blonde hair, pointed elven ears, and is wearing only blue shorts. He is lying in a stone sarcophagus-like pod. Above him, strange machinery hangs from the ceiling, projecting blue constellations of light. He steps out of the pod onto the cold stone floor, looking around in confusion at the strange, futuristic-ruin interior.

1:46 – 2:38: The Sheikah Slate

  • Setup and background, colors: Link walks into a circular antechamber. In the center stands a pedestal glowing with orange energy circles. The room is hazy and filled with dust particles caught in the blue light.
  • What is moving, what appears: Link approaches the pedestal. The circular top rotates and mechanical irises open. A stone tablet with a glowing eye symbol rises from the center.
  • What objects in this scene and what is happening: The object is the "Sheikah Slate," a mystical tablet that resembles a modern tablet computer. Link takes it, and the female voice explains that it will guide him. An interface screen pops up showing an item description: "Sheikah Slate: A mysterious tablet with a glowing center." Link attaches the device to his hip.

2:39 – 3:15: Dressing for the Journey

  • Setup and background, colors: A stone door slides open with a heavy grinding sound. Link enters a hallway lined with old crates and barrels. The lighting is dim, relying on the blue torches on the walls.
  • What is moving, what appears: Link runs barefoot down the hall. He stops at two treasure chests. He kicks them open (or lifts the lids) to reveal items inside.
  • What objects in this scene and what is happening: Link finds clothing. An inventory menu appears on screen showing "Well-Worn Trousers" and an "Old Shirt." The description notes they are old and a bit short. Link equips them, transforming from his near-naked state into a humble beige tunic and brown pants.

3:16 – 3:55: The Exit

  • Setup and background, colors: At the end of the hallway is a massive, sealed stone wall with a large glowing orange eye symbol in the center.
  • What is moving, what appears: Link holds his new Slate up to a small terminal near the door. The terminal turns from orange to blue. The massive wall unlocks; heavy stone mechanisms shift and rotate, and the door rises slowly.
  • What objects in this scene and what is happening: As the heavy door lifts, blinding white natural sunlight pours into the dark cave, silhouetting Link. He shields his eyes with his hand against the sudden brightness and walks toward the exit.

3:56 – 5:08: The Great Plateau

  • Setup and background, colors: The visuals shift dramatically from the cold, dark cave to a vibrant, colorful outside world. The sky is a brilliant blue with soft clouds, and the ground is covered in lush green grass and trees.
  • What is moving, what appears: Link climbs up a small rock face to get out of the cave entrance. He runs through a puddle of water and sprints toward the edge of a cliff.
  • What objects in this scene and what is happening: The camera swoops behind Link and pans out to reveal a breathtaking, massive landscape. We see rolling hills, forests, mountains in the distance, and a ominous volcano spewing smoke. In the center of the world stands a large castle surrounded by dark, swirling purple malice. The game logo "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild" fades onto the screen over the landscape. The scene ends with Link standing on the precipice, wind blowing through his hair and clothes, looking out at the vast adventure ahead.

Please describe what happening in each scene of this video trailer.

List scenes with timestamp, then describe separately:
