Journal de jardinage au balcon

Create a 24-second vertical self-shot phone diary of repotting a basil seedling on a modest apartment balcony. One adult gardener has short curly black hair, round glasses, a rust-colored overshirt, and dark trousers. Keep one basil seedling, terracotta pot, soil bag, and blue watering can throughout. The balcony has a metal railing, striped cushion, and nearby buildings softly visible. Bright overcast morning light stays consistent. She films alone. The first three shots come from a phone propped securely on a shelf away from the railing. The final shot is handheld at arm's length. Use hard cuts with imperfect framing. 0-5s: fixed medium shot. She pours a little soil into the empty terracotta pot and brushes a spill back from the table edge. A bus passes below. 5-10s: hard cut to table height. She gently loosens the seedling from its nursery pot, supports the root ball, and lowers it into the prepared pot. Roots remain attached; leaves jiggle from the movement. 10-16s: hard cut slightly wider. She fills the gap around the root ball, presses the soil lightly, and gives it a small drink. Water darkens the soil gradually and a few drops reach the saucer. 16-24s: handheld selfie, with the newly potted basil visible beside her shoulder. She rubs a fallen leaf between her fingers, smells it, and says, "That already smells like dinner." Include nearby traffic, a light breeze, soil rustle, water, and her relaxed line. Hair and leaves respond to the same breeze. No music, captions, branded packaging, instant plant growth, extra hands, or polished advertising light.
