In the video, a person is seen using a pair of scissors to trim a small pine tree. The person carefully selects the branches to trim, ensuring that they are evenly distributed throughout the tree. The scissors are used to cut the branches at the base, and the person occasionally uses their hand to adjust the branches for a better angle. The tree appears to be healthy and well-maintained, with vibrant green needles and a sturdy trunk. The background is dark, which contrasts with the bright green of the tree, making it the focal point of the video.
