Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. Melbourne. Far, far from ordinary.

I love this ad so much. You can feel the warmth, the creativity and the homeliness of Melbourne. It's such a friendly ad and it is so greeting. Makes me feel so blessed to live in this amazing city!

@visitvictoria hahaha, i'm from Russia and this is exactly what it's like to be looking at Melbourne through a computer screen. Australia seems like heaven compared to cold, grey, dull Russia... hope to move there soon! :)

Thanks for letting me know about the song. I love it--and the Melbourne ad is brilliant.

[mulhollanddrivecb]

What is the name of the song (and singer)?

[visitvictoria]

@mulhollanddrivecb Glad you like the music the song is: A heart divided by Holly Throsby

@rangerjohn12000 the title ‘Western Hemisphere’ is depicting where the ad will be premiered, in this case the ad is targeted at an international audience and this TVC will be shown in Europe.

i love it, the frame is very neat and there is content crammed in. If we are debating your video.

As a one to two minute advert this could be a very effective and attractive advert. But at 30 seconds it feels undercooked. Too short for an atmospheric style. 30 seconds needs more dynamism, more effective scenic imagery. I would love to see the 1-2 minute version of this - surely it exists. From a Victorian's point of view - we have far more attractive elements to our state's offerings than that!

@magillamax there are other versions of the TVC which showcase different attractions of Victoria. Each ad will use different scenes. There isn’t an extended cut so far containing all of the scenes yet. Once the other parts of the series become available we will upload to YouTube for everybody to see.
