Veo-3 fast on Flow 🌱 Generate hyper-realistic time-lapse of a terrarium's growth from initial planting to a mature ecosystem, captured from a single, completely static camera position. The focus is on the changing composition within the fixed frame as life emerges and fills the space.

The composition evolves from sparse and empty to dense and overflowing with life, showcasing the entire growth cycle within the fixed frame of a geometric glass terrarium.", "camera": { "type": "static shot, locked-down", "lens": "50mm macro lens", "aperture": "$f/5.6$", "focus": "Deep depth of field. The focus is set and locked to keep the majority of the terrarium's interior sharp and in focus throughout the entire time-lapse, from the front soil to the back glass.", "movement": "None. The camera does not move, pan, tilt, or zoom." }, "lighting": { "source": "Natural light from a large, off-camera window to the right.", "effect": "The primary visual dynamic. Fast day/night cycles are shown by a beam of sunlight sweeping across the scene from right to left, casting rapidly moving shadows from the terrarium's frame. This transitions smoothly into the soft, ambient blue light of night. The effect is a constant, rhythmic pulse of light and shadow that illuminates the growth.", "highlights": "Condensation on the glass walls appears and disappears, catching the sweeping light and creating fleeting moments of glare and sparkle." }, "audio": { "score": "A subtle, ambient, and atmospheric soundscape. It begins with near silence, introduces a low, resonant hum, and gradually layers in soft, organic textures (like gentle pads or a quiet string swell) that grow in complexity as the terrarium fills the frame.", "sfx": "A very subtle background of sped-up city sounds (distant sirens, traffic) to ground the scene.

We see the initial setup: a bottom layer of gravel, a layer of dark, moist soil, and two or three small starter plants. The composition is sparse. A beam of sunlight sweeps across the empty soil. Condensation is the main sign of activity." }, { "time": "2.0s - 6.5s", "phase": "The Growth", "description": "The frame begins to fill. Green moss visibly creeps across the foreground soil. Ferns sprout and unfurl, their fronds reaching upwards and outwards, progressively occupying the middle ground. A patch of fittonia spreads out, its red-veined leaves adding a splash of color that draws the eye. The shadows cast by the plants become more complex as they grow." }, { "time": "6.5s - 8.0s", "phase": "Maturity", "description": "The composition is now dense and lush. The terrarium is a full, self-contained jungle that fills the frame. The once-visible background soil is now completely obscured by foliage. The leaves of taller plants
