National Geographic '7 Billion' 7-Video Look at World's People

National Geographic has launched a simple but amazing project ‘7 Billion’, a series of videos that take global statistics and break them down in an easy to digest format, one that teaches us plenty about each other. Such a simple project is done with an amazing degree of effectiveness.

The first two videos are in place, and we will update when each new video arrives, leaving the entire group entact for easy viewing.

We are so impressed with the effectivess of delivering statistics in this format that we will be trying to tell women’s stories from fashion to flogging, inspired by this video approach.

In AOC Living, we just intalled a commercial project that doesn’t feel like advertising at all. You might also enjoy Gustav Johansson’s videos of Paris, London, Barcelona, and Beijing developed as ‘Education First: Live the Language’ for EF Learning Centers.
