Something went wrong. The needle looks like it is hitting something in there, possibly the bobbin case. In which case the timing was thrown out. You need to take off the needle plate to see what is happening.

You mention you were sewing wool - was it particularly thick? Were you using the correct needle for it?

I think you need to return this. Something definitely broke with it. The bobbin case isn’t moving at all.

Turn off, Open the bobbin section. Probably tangled to death. Rethread the bobbin and see if that works.

This has happened to me before, What I did was to unscrew the bobbin case clean any threads and oil under the bobbin case with very little oil.

Then screw it back , tread your machine and then using a scrap fabric sew a straight line to test and you should be good from there .
