In the video, a man is seen standing in front of a brick wall. He is wearing a red shirt, a green apron, and brown boots. The man is holding a blue level and a wooden plank. He places the plank against the wall and uses the level to ensure that it is straight. He then proceeds to use a trowel to apply mortar to the wall. The man is seen kneeling down and applying the mortar with precision. He then places the wooden plank on top of the mortar and uses the level to ensure that it is level. The man repeats this process several times, applying mortar and placing the plank on top of it. The video provides a clear demonstration of how to properly apply mortar and lay bricks.
