In the video, a person is seen holding a red and silver pen. The person is using the pen to scratch the surface of a black table. The scratching is done with the tip of the pen, and the person seems to be focused on the task. The pen appears to be a standard ballpoint pen, and the scratching is done in a deliberate manner. The black table provides a stark contrast to the red and silver pen, making the scratching more visible. The person's hand is steady, and the scratching is consistent throughout the video.
