“VANILLA” with BURNA BOY

To launch Ray-Ban Stories, a new collection of smart eyewear that allows you to capture and share every moment to Instagram, we invited people to see the world through the eyes of record-breaking, Nigerian artist Burna Boy.

The “Vanilla” music video invited viewers to step into Burna Boy’s first-person POV perspective, along with a cast of influencers to illustrate the instant and effortless Capture, Share, and Listen capabilities of the glasses.

LAUNCHING THE VIDEO

We used Instagram Stories to drop our music video from not one, but 16 different Instagram accounts. These seemingly disparate story clips were ultimately stitched together, through carefully planned postings and tags, to create one cohesive music video.

We made a series of short-form videos showing people what’s possible with Ray-Ban Stories.
