Facebook Dating
2024
For Meta, we captured a short film advert about the touching love story of Nik and Ayla. We retold their romantic journey — from their first message after matching on Facebook Dating to their scooter breaking down on their first camping trip, shining a light on the beauty of authentic connection and the resilience and joy of finding your person.
