  "prompt": "A large working vegetable farm under a soft overcast sky, pale grey-white cloud with patches of soft blue. Endless parallel rows of raised beds of dark brown tilled soil, clumpy and freshly turned, each lined with tall pale bamboo cane A-frame teepees tied with twine at the top, young leafy green tomato and pepper seedlings at their base, terracotta pots along low weathered grey timber bed edges, a line of green crops on the far flat horizon.\n\nThe video opens with NO person visible. The first four seconds show only rows of plants and bamboo.\n\nShot 1, one continuous camera move:\n0-4s: The camera is low, at waist height, and trucks sideways to the right at high speed, travelling perpendicular to the rows. Row after row after row of bamboo teepees and green plants rushes across the frame from right to left, each row flashing past one after another: canes, plants, gap of soil, canes, plants, gap of soil. Strong motion blur on the foreground canes, the horizon steady. Like a camera car racing along the end of the field.\n4-5s: The camera brakes hard and stops dead, perfectly lined up looking straight down the length of one single row, the row's soil path running to a vanishing point in the centre of frame. A tiny silver figure is just visible far away at the end of the row. A brief still beat.\n5-8s: The camera launches forward and dollies fast and low straight down that row between the bamboo canes, the canes streaming past either side. It decelerates as the figure grows into a woman kneeling in the soil and stops in a medium-wide side-on shot of her: early 30s, pale skin with a few freckles, dark brown hair in a low loose chignon, a calm focused expression, wearing a dramatic Victorian-silhouette ballgown made of crinkled glossy SILVER metallic tarpaulin, with a deep V neckline, enormous puffed short sleeves, a gathered waist and a huge skirt pooled and spread across the soil behind her. She leans forward on one hand over the bed, planting a small seedling with a steel hand trowel with a wooden handle.\n\nHard cut.\n\nShot 2:\n8-12s: Tight close-up at soil level on her hands. She presses dark damp soil firmly around the base of the seedling and pats it down twice, sets the trowel aside, then brushes her palms together to dust them off. Crumbs of soil fall from her fingers. The glossy crinkled silver plastic of her skirt fills the background.\n\nThe silver plastic gown has real stiffness: it crackles, creases and catches soft highlights. Soil is clumpy and leaves dirt on her fingers. Soft diffused overcast light, no hard sun or hard-edged shadows, but rich contrast and dimension. Surreal fashion-editorial tone played straight. Photographic natural colour, subtle film grain. The woman and her gown stay exactly the same; nothing morphs. SPEED IS CRITICAL: everything moves at normal real-time speed, like 24fps footage played back at 24fps - natural motion, NO slow motion.\n\nSound: natural diegetic location sound only — rushing wind and whoosh of canes flashing past, then quiet wind through leaves, the crinkle of the plastic gown, trowel scraping soil, soft pats, dry hands brushing together. No music, no score, no singing, no melody, no rhythm track.",
