The 30-second launch ad, “Pictures” from agency Leo Burnett, and Facebook’s Creative X studio, was co-directed by brothers Michel and Olivier Gondry and is set to a cover of The Beatles’ “All Together Now” by Lizzo, recorded specifically for the ad.
The ad was created entirely in quarantine.
Facebook Messenger Rooms allow up to 50 people into one group video chat with no time limit. Participants can hop in and out and soon, chats will be able to be shared across the Facebook family of apps.
