Datadog for Tool Consolidation
Datadog for Cloud ExcellenceThe pilot episode kicked off the ‘Datadog for ________’ video series, which highlighted solution areas like tool consolidation, cloud migration, and industries such as government and financial services. Designed to capture the attention of an executive audience, the series used polished animated slides to showcase thought leadership.
I spearheaded the development of the visual language and storytelling, collaborating closely with stakeholders and teams throughout the process. Contributing to the animation and final polish, this project helped increase visibility into B2B marketing efforts and demonstrated how Datadog’s solutions resonate across different industries.
