This could be a machine pouring molten steel or even a colorful array of shipping containers. Visually captivating industrial footage can also show massive scale, with humans walking next to or working on gigantic systems, or a bird's eye view of an industrial plant, wind turbines from high in the sky, or massive shipping vessels sailing the oceans.
