Word bubbles of different shapes and sizes form over individuals and groups of people as they talk on the cell phones. We even see bubbles flying out of open windows on a moving bus. A bubble formed in a car looks like an airbag has been activated. Turns out the entire city is covered in word bubbles, some of which have grown to huge proportions. This ubiquity underscores the fact that more people are taking advantage of being able to talk longer abroad via Vodafone.

Starting this week, FactSet will roll out 16 unique spotsโa combination of :30s, :15s, :06s and nine โshortsโโacross multiple channels including digital, streaming and CTV.
