When we heard it was World Emoji Day (17th July), we jumped at the chance of bringing our favourite icons to life!
Since their launch in Japan in 1998/1999, emojis or ??? have become an integral part of the digital language. From helping to build emotional relationships, to defusing an awkward WhatsApp squabble, whether we like it or not, emojis play a big part in our lives!
From awkward monkey eyes to lovable emoji, watch some of the team transform into their favourite characters / symbols.
