Why it worked
The video uses a 'behind-the-scenes' transparency mechanic, turning a common pain point (high cost) into a demonstration of the effort and waste involved in the creator's professional service.
Summary
The creator shows a pile of discarded plastic waste from a 3D color printing process to illustrate why the service is expensive. The video serves as a behind-the-scenes look at the labor and material costs involved in their custom 3D printing business.

Product placement
3D Art Galleria (a) ACTS — the creator is demonstrating their own 3D printing service by showing the waste material generated during a complex color print, which explains the cost of their service. Removing the name would change the context of the video from a service provider explaining their pricing to a generic complaint about 3D printing.
