Stop-motion, animation, textual context, and more, Swiggy uses multiple visual elements that create a peculiar slate of Reels tapping various everyday instances that foodies would be able to relate to.

Hiding snacks, filling up your plate with delicacies, breaking an egg, or wishing their community on the eve of Ganesh Chaturthi, Swiggy fuses several of such relatable instances into creative concepts and widely circulating trends. Music is another element that Swiggy incorporates into their content.

In a conversation with Social Samosa, Paras Sharma, Director, Content and Community Partnerships, Facebook (Meta)India, highlighted the importance of music saying, music enables storytelling, transitions, and attention.

He added that, "It triggers engagement. All of this forms a backdrop for why music becomes important for users and creators and thus becomes important for Meta. Songs are not just getting discovered, but they are inspiring creations. It is not about passive leaned back consumption but active consumption and leaned forward creation that makes the reels unique".

Swiggy enables eccentric storytelling through songs remixed with snackable content, and also uses it for transitions, and active usage of popular tracks from the library. These tracks and their usage varies for each piece
