In the video, a person is seen using a pencil to poke holes in a yellow strip of material. The material appears to be some sort of fabric or paper with a textured surface. The person's hand is visible as they hold the material in place while poking the holes. The pencil used is a standard wooden pencil with a pointed tip. The holes are evenly spaced and appear to be made with precision. The background is a plain white surface, providing a clear contrast to the yellow material.
