Foundry’s 0:44 launch film runs 37 scenes, about 1.2 s each. The product shows up at 0:17, with social proof. The call to action lands at 0:40 (90% in), over a voiceover. The video opens on molten steel and a rapid montage of AI capabilities, states the industrial problem, then forges the Foundry triangle logo out of liquid metal and delivers the platform pitch before stacking investor numbers and closing on the URL. Its style is defined by a pale yellow on black palette, liquid metal transitions, and hard cuts between 3D renders and flat grid title cards.
Footage neededEstimated needs: 1 capture group — your screens or recordings · 1 official logo — reused across the film · 5 filmed passages — shoot, supply or replace · 8 graphic passages — draw or supply · 7 3D passages — build or supply

· 37 scenes as text
01 · Hook · 0:00–0:02
A dark textured corner of a 3D form fills the frame. A thin edge glows pale yellow, then the inner walls heat to deep amber as a white-hot point ignites at the bottom corner. The camera holds a tight, low-angle view.
Camera: Static
02 · Hook · 0:02–0:03
A gloved hand works a tool at the base of a blazing molten pour, sparks bursting upward through the dark toward a glowing rectangular mold. The shot starts tight on the white-hot glow and pulls back to reveal the hand and mold.
Techniques: Particles
Camera: Static
03 · Hook · 0:03–0:04
A dark furnace interior glows orange around a low pool of molten steel, smoke billowing above and black rock walls framing the right edge. The handheld camera holds the flickering glow steady as a few embers drift through the haze.
Camera: Static
04 · Hook · 0:04–0:04
The tan backdrop inverts to pale yellow while the red rounded-square arrow logo scales down toward center. A faint microphone icon and down-chevron fade in at the left edge.
Camera: Static
05 · Hook · 0:04–0:04
A dark UI close-up frames a microphone icon and a rounded square button. A white arrow cursor rests on the button as it shifts from tan to orange and its icon spins into a loading ring. The label Motion fades in at the left edge.
Techniques: Cursor demo
Camera: Static
06 · Hook · 0:04–0:05
On a black scan-lined field, white serif captions scroll upward at high speed, each line paired with a small orange asterisk mark that steps down the frame. The fast vertical drift leaves the words heavily motion-blurred, so only fragments like Simplifying the real and Evaluating a Third-Or are legible.
On-screen text: “Simplifying the real”, “Thought for 200+ >>”, “Evaluating a Third-Or”
Techniques: Kinetic type
Camera: Static
07 · Hook · 0:05–0:06
A dark blurred backdrop holds a left-aligned headline that types out word by word. The newest word sits in a gray pill that clears as the next arrives, while 'EMPHASIS' stays in an outlined box. 'JADEN' labels the line above.
On-screen text: “JADEN”, “The most EMPHASIS advanced technology in history can reason, speak...”
Techniques: Kinetic type
Camera: Static
08 · Hook · 0:06–0:06
A minimal audio player bar rests centered on a plain white background. A black pause button sits left, an animated dot waveform pulses in the middle, and share and download icons sit right. The waveform dots shift height frame to frame.
Camera: Static
09 · Hook · 0:06–0:07
A white autonomous car drives forward on a city street while colored bounding boxes and white wireframes tag parked cars, signs and cones around it. A teal path trails behind the vehicle and an orange detection volume fills the lane ahead.
Techniques: 3D mockup
Camera: Push in
10 · Hook · 0:07–0:08
A street seen from a car's dashboard is overlaid with colored pedestrian silhouettes in green, cyan and yellow, each framed by a white bounding box with a number and a distance label. The boxes shift position to track the moving figures across the crosswalk.
Camera: Static
11 · Problem · 0:08–0:10
A mottled abstract texture fills the frame, churning like ink in water. The surface granules pulse and the hue shifts from olive green to bright orange across the clip.
Camera: Static
12 · Problem · 0:10–0:11
A glowing orange fire ring erupts at the center of a dark field, then the flames expand and intensify until a bright yellow-white wash fills the entire frame. The effect plays quickly as a fiery transition.
Camera: Static
13 · Problem · 0:11–0:12
A glowing orange cloud shape fills a white background, then the view shifts to a 3D model of an industrial plant with beige columns, dark steel framing, and brass pipes with valves. The camera holds a high-angle view of the structure.
Techniques: 3D mockup
Camera: Push in
14 · Problem · 0:12–0:13
A green wireframe model of an industrial plant, dense with pipes, tanks and railings, rotates slowly on a black background as the camera orbits it, revealing the layered depth of the structure.
Techniques: 3D mockup
Camera: Static
15 · Problem · 0:13–0:13
A dense white line diagram of an industrial process, full of small labeled boxes and connecting lines, fills a black frame. It cuts to a second schematic showing tanks, valves and flow lines. The two schematics flash by in quick succession.
Camera: Static
16 · Problem · 0:13–0:15
In a dim steel mill washed in warm orange light, two workers in blue uniforms and yellow hard hats press their hands against the rim of a massive cylindrical machine. The camera holds on their effort as the machine looms overhead.
Camera: Static
17 · Problem · 0:15–0:17
A red car body shell travels along a factory assembly line, filmed from inside the cabin facing forward. The dashboard and red hood fill the frame while the factory floor, workstations and ceiling lights slide past the open sides. A worker leans over the dash in the opening frame.

Techniques: 3D mockup
Camera: Static
28 · Product intro · 0:25–0:28
A 3D-rendered factory corridor, conveyor belt and overhead pipes, shifts from green tint to grayscale as the camera pushes slowly forward. The yellow-green tagline “building AI for” gives way to “inside the industrial world”, then the frame falls to black.

31 · Social proof · 0:31–0:32
On a black field, a small “Built by” slides in next to the still “ATLAS HOLDINGS” caption, then the frame fills with a giant pale yellow “$1.8B” held center.
On-screen text: “Built by”, “ATLAS HOLDINGS”, “$1.8B”
Techniques: Kinetic type
Camera: Pan
32 · Social proof · 0:32–0:34
A light gray grid holds black text “dedicated to American Dynamism” as a huge pale yellow “371+” appears behind it. It cuts to a gray US map with small square markers; a huge pale yellow “400+” shows with “facilities”, which swaps to “years” as the map zooms in.
