The format is developed by\u00a0B-17&#8217;s Thumb Candy.<\/p>\n<p>Matthew Henick, head of content strategy and planning for Facebook, commented: \u201c<em>Confetti<\/em> has shown us the power of combining traditional entertainment formats with the social, people-centric advantages of video on Facebook. People who played with their friends were significantly more likely to tune in to the next episode and play again versus people who played alone. It made perfect sense to partner with Fremantle, a leader in the gameshow space, to bring <em>Confetti<\/em> to audiences around the world. We are also incredibly excited to take all of the tools that we developed for <em>Confetti<\/em> and give them to our global partners to create their own community-driven reinventions of the game show.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Rob Clark, director of global entertainment at Fremantle, added, \u201cWe\u2019re excited to combine our market-leading expertise as entertainment producers with Facebook\u2019s global community to evolve the game show for new audiences around the world. Our family of producers gives us the reach and ability to customize the show for local audiences.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Facebook and Fremantle have struck a deal to launch new international versions of the interactive game show Confetti, which is being adapted in the U.K., Thailand, India, Vietnam and the Philippines for Facebook Watch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":350,"featured_media":6577,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[1533,1482],"class_list":["post-6576","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-facebook","tag-fremantle","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 -
