Why is this work relevant for Entertainment?
Entertaining and educating WhatsApp's Desktop Calling using original composition & lyrics to situations shown in film
Hangin in there, can’t you see?
Things are going perfectly
Waited for the time to pass,
I’m happy, and I’m glad you asked
Tell me all the things you’ve done
And please say hi to everyone
Crazy, all this time has passed
I’m so happy, and I’m glad you asked
I’ve been wishing on a star
Crossing fingers, cross my heart
The weeks are long, the weekends fast
But I’m happy, and I’m glad you asked
Yeah, I’m happy & I’m glad you asked
Background
To launch WhatsApp’s Desktop Calling feature, we created an online film showing the challenges faced by our users such as hands being full, inconvenience during longer conversations, not being able to see the details in a smaller screen and find it especially hard to multitask while talking. This directed us fun, hands-free creative situations—
The Crop—No more cropped faces by going from vertical to bigger horizontal screen where one size fits all.
The Drop—No more dropping your phone inside that delicious lentil soup as you get mom's recipe on a video call.
The Ceiling—Feeding your baby while chatting with your friends, without the phone pointing at the ceiling.
And by taking those creative insights we made a simple, empowering online film that shows real user situations in an endearing and lighthearted way while portraying Desktop Calling as an ideal solution for such moments.

Hangin in there, can’t you see?
Things are going perfectly

I’m happy, and I’m glad you asked.

Yeah, I’m happy and I’m glad you asked
Ohhh, happy, and I’m glad you asked.
