Product placement
Converse: (a) ACTS — the shoes are the central subject of the video, being showcased as a desirable fashion find at a specific retailer. Removing them would leave the video with no content. Ross: (a) ACTS — the store is identified as the location where these specific products can be purchased, driving the viewer to visit the store. Removing it would change the call to action.
