✍️ Editor’s Notes

This one's a standard time-lapse template — the timeline splits into segments at 0/2/4/6/8 seconds, and each segment carries not just a plant-growth state but a synchronized change in light timing too (morning light → noon → afternoon golden light). Using light changes to imply the passage of time is much easier for the model to catch the rhythm of than just saying “time-lapse”. In the style field, “shallow depth of field” paired with “macro” locks down the camera language, keeping this micro subject matter from getting rendered as a wide establishing shot.
