Rise of the Ottoman Empire
TED-Ed
In the late 13th century, Osman I established a small principality sandwiched between a crumbling Byzantine Empire and a weakened Sultanate of the Seljuk of Rum, in what is now Turkey. In just a few generations, this territory had outmaneuvered more powerful neighbors to become the vast Ottoman Empire. What enabled its rapid rise? Mostafa Minawi details the early days of the Ottomans.

Just in time for the Olympics 2016, we have collaborated with R/GA London on a series of videos for Nike Greece.
Nike Greece has created a 21 day running challenge for Greek athletes to cover a cumulative distance around 10,000 km's.
This is the distance between Athens to Rio that the Olympic torch has traveled. The videos lived on the Nike.com/Greece site, highlighting how much distance was covered on a given day. After our Greek friends nailed the challenge (overachieving about 2000 km's), we have also created a system that created customized celebration video to be shared on social media by the athletes.
