The Feed by Getty Images, by R/GA London
Developed for photography organisation Getty Images, The Feed is a collection of services that allows Getty Images content to be automatically uploaded as needed via the Getty Connect API and distributed to Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr. A ‘social listening’ algorithm monitors online conversations and posts images from the most-talked- about moments of key events.

D-Day as it Happens for Channel 4, by Digit London and Windfall Films
Channel 4 tasked Digit to design and build a digital platform that would provide an innovative and compelling way for people to engage with its D-Day documentary. Digit developed a real-time Twitter-based storytelling platform that told the experiences of historical figures such as Captain George Honour of the Royal Navy Volunteer Reserve. These connections prompted people to add their own experiences of the war, with pictures, diaries and mementoes uploaded to the platform.
