Product placement
Diamond painting kit (Velaris/City of Starlight) — ACTS: it is the primary activity being demonstrated, the creator is actively placing diamonds on the canvas, and it is the subject of the recommendation. Removing it would remove the entire purpose of the video. ACOTAR (A Court of Thorns and Roses) — APPEARS: mentioned in text and caption as the audiobook being listened to; it is the theme of the art, but the video is not selling the book itself.
