In the video, a person is seen holding a small metal clip in their hand. They then proceed to open a white book and place the clip on the edge of the book. The person then closes the book, securing it with the clip. The clip appears to be a binder clip, which is commonly used to hold papers together. The person's hand is visible throughout the video, and they seem to be demonstrating how to use the clip to keep a book open. The background is a plain surface with a grid pattern.
