About the Work
WhatsApp wanted Gen Z to know about View Once – a new feature in which videos and photos vanish after being seen once and can’t be saved to any media galleries.
We decided to tell a story that ring true to the way in which View Once works - by showing photos and videos that last only a few seconds. The result is collage that’s intimate and ephemeral. Although the images were mostly shot on 35mm, they’re seamlessly combined with voice notes, text messages, and diverse UI elements.
The on-screen talent showcases real moments where they’d use View Once in their own life. More importantly, they’re truly being themselves rather than strictly acting.
