Prior to this promotional video for Facebook, Facebook had were going through a lot of turmoil in terms of how they were perceived in the public eye so in order to win the users they here together. This promotional video in my own respected opinion is very effective as i believe it does what it intends to do effectively by reminding users as to why they used Facebook in the first place.

As Facebook is in the same professional field as the client i can use this as inspiration.

Sound - narration runs throughout the whole video explaining that Facebook will do better to become the app people once signed up for and accompanying this is sound from the app such as notification bells clicking of mouses and typing of the keyboard

Editing - quick cuts is the only thing that drives the editing. nothing special happens however this allows the promotional video to get straight to the point of what they're trying to advertise.
