When people click a video from their Facebook News Feed, the video opens in the video feed, which includes additional videos that they can watch. When you use the video feeds placement, you can insert your video ads between organic videos in the video feed.
You can use the video format in the video feed placement to show off your product, service or brand in new ways. Include movement and sound to capture attention quickly and show unique features of a product or tell your brand story.
