More great news from our digital department — last night at the Guardian MEGA Awards for Innovation we took home the Technology for Social Change award for our SuperMe project.

A total surprise, not least because the competition was so amazing, the award celebrates innovative projects that do good Out There. SuperMe’s aim was to teach teenagers to understand the control they have over their own happiness.

It’s a system of video, interactive tools and games all set in a hub visible at http://playsuperme.com …

We’re incredibly proud of it as you may imagine. It’s a feat of engineering, research and design from the Somethin’ Else digital team. A massive original research project fed into a load of audience activity, which lead to something with a lot of complexity dressed up to look like simplicity. The site has a powerful personalised content system, which built a ‘big game’ on top of all the material: animation, stop-motion and full-motion video linear stuff; interactive quizzes, some Flash games, all delivered with beautiful Facebook integration and plenty of 3rd-party syndication.

A million thanks to Alice Taylor / Jo Twist / Matt Locke from Channel 4 Education, to Preloaded who made the Flash games with us, to Tassos Stevens for leading the research and — last but not least — Jo Roach who lead the project.

GO TEAM.
