When Spotify launched in 2008, they didn’t just create another streaming music service. They created an entirely new model for music. One that pays an artist every single time their music is played, taking the pressure off of bands to constantly churn out radio singles and commercial albums. And one that allows fans to listen to any song, anywhere, on anything.
Spotify isn’t just another music site, it’s a company created for music. And the more people that use Spotify, the more that artists, their fans and music benefit. (Droga5)

Spotify's new +Follow feature lets bands and their fans get closer than ever. The problem is, neither even know it exists.
So to launch this new service, we put one of the world's biggest bands on the Internet's biggest stage and let the whole world actually follow them for 24 hours straight.
And, in the process, we created an 18-minute long documentary that gives you a rare glimpse into what it's like to be rockstar for the 23 hours they aren't on stage. (Droga5)

In the spirit of the 2012 Olympic games, vitamin water partnered with international superstar Jessie J to create a first-of- it’s-kind music video game. The game featured Jessie J’s music video for her single ‘Laserlight,’ and allowed fans to see exclusive footage, collect rewards, and even win concert tickets.
Players logged on through Facebook to watch the video, and were automatically thrown into a game of 6 players from around the world. At unexpected intervals the Laserlight video paused, objects appeared on-screen, and players would rush to hover their mouse over the objects to ‘claim’ them. The player who failed to claim an object was dropped out of the game, with the option of watching the rest of the video or playing again.
The winner from every game of musical chairs got to watch an exclusive ending to the Laserlight’ video, and was thrown into a draw to win tickets to Jessie J’s concert in London. The way players performed during the game also led to badges and coupons. A player who snatched up the final object during a play might win a defense badge, which could be redeemed instore for free vitaminwater.
Musical chairs was available in 20 countries and translated into 6 languages. (Droga5)
Our assignment was to help Barack Obama win the Presidency of the United States, by helping him motivate critical swing voter blocks in a battleground state. The key to winning the election was winning Florida. And the key to winning Florida was swinging the elderly Jewish Vote.
So we created an online grassroots movement to get Jewish grandchildren to educate their grandparents about Obama. Our solution consisted of a community a viral film hosted by Sarah Silverman, a re-designed JewsVote.org, Great Schlep Facebook groups and heaps of Great Schlep-branded merchandise.

We were asked to spread the word among parents that PDFA can make it easier to talk to their kids about drugs. Research showed that today's parents still feel serious anxiety about the subject, so we created a lighthearted campaign to break the tension, under the tagline "You don't have to sound like your parents."

Running is endangered. You might find this hard to believe. After all, the number of entrants in your local 10K is surely on the rise, and every Saturday the park is packed with people prancing around in brand new trainers, trying to nurture their chi or look good for their wedding or whatever. Unfortunately, few if any of them are running. They're jogging, a half-hearted fore-aft movement of the legs that, mechanics aside, has about as much in common with running as billiards. And with all the jogging going on out there, actual runners are an increasingly rare breed. (CP+B)
