Databento’s 1:19 launch film runs 20 scenes, about 4.0 s each. There is no explicit call to action; a voiceover carries the film. The video is a single talking-head funding announcement cut between two locked-off office framings and a burst of flat graphic stingers. Its style is defined by a calm, sunlit live-action palette interrupted by pale-lavender number cards that animate with thin line work, square node handles and drifting ruler ticks, all tied together by a recurring violet accent and a closing wordmark.

Footage neededEstimated needs: 1 capture group — your screens or recordings · 1 official logo — reused across the film · 13 filmed passages — shoot, supply or replace · 1 graphic passage — draw or supply
