Launching WhatsApp's Disappearing messages using original composition & lyrics
When I think of us together
sending gifs just for fun
all the memories are fading away
You're always on my mind
Because you text me all the time
I know is hard it's time to let you go
All the photos you sent me
Are too much for me to keep
I need some space so now I'm gonna set you free
Fly baby fly
Beyond the sky
Last week we said hello
Now it's time to say goodbye
Your audios said hello
But now it's time to say goodbye
Background
We had to launch a technical feature in an entertaining way for our global users that made this very technical privacy feature feel like a positive and uplifting one. While our creative insight and idea was about elements leaving the WhatsApp UI, we had to make it lighthearted and comedic and music and original song became to the tool to do that in an entertaining way.
Describe the creative idea
Description:
WhatsApp launches its 7 Days Disappearing Messages feature with FLY BABY FLY – A online film crafted with unique visual style and copywriting with original lyrics.
To promote the new Disappearing Messages, feature on WhatsApp we created a global online film that communicated the value of ephemerality by educating our users on the feature’s use cases. Our farewell film bids adieu to elements inside WhatsApp conversations, such as Gifs, Good Morning Forward Messages, Audio Notes, Pictures etc., dramatically. The original soundtrack with custom lyrics also talks about the product feature on WhatsApp.

Describe the outcome
the film was well appreciated with the global community and users of WhatsApp on social channels, as the song became a tip of the tong element for all our users globally.
