Singing Emoji Ads

Apple Created Fun Ads for the Grammy Featuring Singing Animojis

To promote the fact that four new Animojis will be coming to iOS 11.3 later this spring, Apple created a fun set of ads that also doubled as a campaign for the Grammys.

The two ads feature the Animoji faces of an alien, a unicorn, a fox, a puppy dog and more, all of which sing to show off the kinds of emotions that can be impressively captured by the iPhone X'sTrueDepth camera. This iPhone X feature captures one's facial expressions and recreates them in the form of a 3D animated character that brings one's favorite emoji icon to life.

The 60-second ads are set to the music of 'Stir Fry' from Migos and 'Redbone' by Childish Gambino, with the included Animojis perfectly capturing the spirit of each song.
