According to Seetharaman, the social network’s in-house ad studio, The Factory, created the campaign with the aim of encouraging more “regular” Facebook users to try out Facebook Live, which has exploded in popularity with media companies, publishers, celebrities and public figures.
The campaign will feature clips of live videos explaining how the feature works, a source familiar with the effort told Seetharaman.
