Crayons, TV Ad, Newfoundland and Labrador Tourism (HD)

[@grizzyof3]

Whoever is putting together these videos for NL tourism is a friggin' genius. They are so well produced and show how beautiful the province is. I haven't been to NL since my honeymoon 27 years ago and we are taking our daughter this summer for her first visit. We are so excited to show her the province where her father grew up.

[@steve4400]

I think the ads are great as well

[@iamjimhs]

The ad agency that created these commercials deserve awards for visual beauty, photography and pleasing audio. Bravo.

[@lindsaybrambles9678]

This ad always brings a smile to myself -- charming and gorgeous. The Newfoundland and Labrador tourism commercials are among the best and most beautiful I've ever seen. They truly make you want to go there. I can't wait to see what they come up with next.

[@PJBubbles]

You've done it again...brought a big smile to my face and increased my longing to return to this beautiful place!!!

[@newfoundlandandlabrador]

+PJBubbles Thank you! Hope to see you again soon :)

[@Jangle2007]

Been to Newfoundland three times. The last time was for two months while my wife finished writing her Doctoral dissertation. The place gets into your soul. We're coming back this summer for a month. This video brings a tear to my eye. Makes me wish I was there yesterday. Newfoundland is a mighty place.

[@jaybudgell870]

this might be the best comment I've ever read about this beautiful province. I live here and daily there's things that can bring tears to my eyes.

[@vermontsownboy6957]

@@jaybudgell870 We just saw the play "Come From Away" in Montreal (Jan 2023). I now miss being in Newfoundland more than ever. Sigh....

[@josiegorden8589]

Have lived away most of my life. However I do go home every summer as I do have most of my family still living there.The one thing that stands out in my mind that makes it feel like home is when I step of the plane in Deer Lake and I take in my first deep breathe of that pure Newfie air.Now that's organic! Touches my heart every time.

[@fubukiiwanami]

Studied in MUN and lived St.john's more than 5 years, the town teach me the word "colourful", and the island teach me the meaning of "saltwater joys". If people ask me only use one sentence to describe this place, my answer is "The simplest pleasure".

[@lesmorley6901]

This ad is perfection, with beautiful colours, perfect images, a lovely tune and ethereal voices. If it doesn't get you to travel to Newfoundland, nothing will. Here's hoping that you do!

[@netafriesen2229]

This ad makes me instantly teary, speaks to my inner child, the Melody, the visuals, and that voice. Thankyou for this ad. I just saw it again on cbc after it being off several months. So happy it's back!

[@mariadams5640]

These have to be the most spectacular and beguiling ads ever. Stupendous photography, memorable music and lyrics, stunning scenery. Thank you for brightening my days.

[@Argonaut121]

Whenever I feel a bit depressed I will binge-watch NL ads. They are works of genius, which not a word one normally applies to advertising.

[@lesmorley6901]

Great idea!

[@neellie9474]

Once I get my license and a car, I'm coming for you Newfoundland. I'm coming for you. 2 week trip across that entire province. Just me and my dog. Kicking it back and soaking up the entire place.

[@gusbeau1]

Want company ?!!!!

[@SamBorgman]

+Ellie Lannister Take me too damnit

[@carmenduncan1637]

+Theresa hello xxx

[@phoenixnightrose42]

I hope you do come! If you do- there's a place in New Harbour called Woodhaven Cottages (PET FRIENDLY!) You can check out their website!

[@fuiplu]

Just seeing this now in 2018..Did you go?

[@sylviajh14]

It's all true! The colours of everything in Newfoundland and Labrador are SO rich, they're like the Rocky Mountains..."you have to SEE it for yourself to appreciate it".

[@sonu888]

Absolutely beautiful. This melodious song really pulls the strings of the heart. Thank you very much.

[@wangonguy62]

Born and raised in Ontario but I need to find my roots in NF. Beautiful ad.

[@chuckewe]

Just saw this again, this morning. It’s still as fresh, vivid, relaxing, inspiring as it was *7 years ago*. Beautiful.

[@MovieBuffReal]

Been to NL once and really enjoyed. Drove from St. John's to Placentia, to Cape St. Mary's and then Gander and then Twillingate and finally Deer Lake. Was an unforgettable trip. Will go back if everything goes well next year to enjoy this wonderful part of Canada again.

[@idriskhelouf8567]

Très jolie ville 😍, comment je peux immigrés sur cette magnifique place

[@bpisbp2]

love the song and the singing

[@ArshadHaroon]

Absolutely amazing, such a beautiful commercial to show the awesome colors of our beautiful Newfoundland and Labrador.

[@joanmcvicar-duncan166]

Great commercial. Great to hear Catherine Allan's voice. She has recently received a Juno nomination for her work with The Fortunate Ones.

[@norriec2551]

I love this Ad. I knew as soon as it started on CBC TV that it had to be one from Newfoundland & Labrador Tourism. I visited the St. John's area in September 2014. This ad makes me want to get back again to see more of this beautiful province. (In summer or fall, that is!)

[@obrienswhalebirdtour]

Another stunning video showcasing our beautiful province. Hats off to the Newfoundland and Labrador Tourism team once again!

[@lenarminio1185]

Just clicked the "Show More" button. Great performance by Catherine Allan.

[@ronnyber]

Just saw this spot on my local news. It's a brilliant commercial. Kudos to the creators.

[@agioni99]

These Newfoundland & Labrador Ads, just get better and better! My best friend of over 20 years hails from N&L, he's a great man, from a great land. I love him like a brother. I love N&L. AND I LOVE THESE AD SPOTS! I know they must be touching peoples hearts, for they do mine EVRYTIME! Keep em' coming! PLEASE. The whole world needs to see the beautiful diverse land and people which make up Canada. God bless from Ontario, Canada.

[@MrLutz23]

Absolutely wonderful! Has convinced me to visit this fall!

[@kennethhook]

As a Videographer and Video Editor, my congratulations again for a fabulous campaign. This is truly superb! You folks really have your act together.

[@TurquoiseStar17]

I love this commercial! I have to get there one of these days, it's the only province I have never yet set foot in.

[@ellenokeefe151]

Simple beauty! I know because I live along the Baccalieu Trail , Heart's Content,NL so much beauty all around me .There is no prettier place on earth with it's simplicity as our own Newfoundland and Labrador..

[@judibaine3976]

Stacy!!! This is brilliant. So calming and full of hope. Be well.

[@hapkrs]

[@nsrooster]

Beautiful ad and song for a beautiful place.

[@littleretroship6403]

Idk how but I am on a binge of nl tourism ads as a Newfie.

[@kategormack6593]

so beautiful omg...hope to come here one day

[@paulbruce4169]

Great ad , truly reflective of the Province and the people . Well done again

[@MobyDicksWife]

And lots and lots and lots of white snow in the winter. And shining blue skies (sometimes).

[@randydale03]

So Beautiful! Need to plan another trip to NLFD soon!!

[@carolmcbrideonline]

quite beautiful!

[@carolinedeblois262]

Magnifique! One day, when my girl will be older, I promess myself to come and visit!

[@uncleartie]

I can only echo PJBubble's comments. You've done it again. Thank you for what I believe to be the greatest tourism ads ever created.

[@jsail]

Outstanding! Good on ya.

[@SparkeySparklesOfLifeALBOFMI]

what a wonderful colorful place to be at.

[@bwc230]

I'm sold! Newfound summer 2018!!!!

[@vroomvroomvroom]

Looks awesome!

[@beatlesdog1]

Man that is beautiful!

[@bradsbeenthere2132]

Love this commercial. Can't wait to live there

[@quinnwalsh80]

The funniest thing is watching 22 minutes version of this song 😂😂😂

[@SamBorgman]

Dang that is such a perfect use of that song! Newfoundland ads are always calling me to move there!

[@jbaker7444]

With the Canadian dollar so low, it's time to rediscover Newfoundland and Labrador, one of our favourite places and people in the whole world. J&J Baker, Alberta.

[@oddlyoaktree]

Such a beautiful part of the world! And the people are just about the nicest you'll ever meet! And that's by Canadian standards ;)

[@Popisms]

*Here's the song:* www.popisms.com/Song/119495/Colors-by-Catherine-Allan.aspx The music in the Newfoundland & Labrador Tourism commercial is by #CatherineAllan of #FortunateOnes

[@littlekipper22]

Visit port aux basques every summer! Love shooting the gulls, fishing and camping

[@HughLlewellyn]

So beautiful. I want to go.

[@stephanbelanger3041]

A true masterpiece

[@lexi55410]

The song is what captured me.

[@AP19327]

This campaign is incredibly well done. Love it!

[@nedned7013]

Beautifully done! Someday I'll visit this province :)

[@TashaKatt]

Kind of genius... they have been making these luscious ads for a few years now. I always thought I would come to Nfld, but it was not top of my list. But these visuals percolate in your mind, dwell in your thoughts and creep up on you ... so I'm cashing in my Air Miles and I'll see you there August! (By the way, book early - these ads have had their effect on a lot of people!)

[@jimloth6091]

Nobody, and I mean nobody - does tourism commercials like Newfoundland and Labrador. You are in a class of your own. I can't wait to get to see all this beauty first hand. Where can I get a copy the full version of this song? Just incredible....

[@brendaflower7790]

Beautiful, amost made me cry!😊

[@nilbd3626]

OMG! WHAT A Wonderful PLACE:O

[@sandiefernando4786]

Great ad! In fact all the ads are fabulous. I know some New Foundlanders and they are very friendly people.

[@hassanalinoo]

i love canada

[@johnnyfavourite3942]

Sharing this, Live in Mexico now. But so proud to be a Newf.

[@frostybabe1048]

The only colour I see when I look out my window here in NL is white....yep more snow...😢

[@Bidoofus]

Yep. :P

[@querps1043]

Snow or fog

[@david.juillet]

In additive color mixing, like light, all the colors combined create white

[@franc520]

Beautiful again! Congrats!Tourism department should be open a contest to get other nice visions of the region, by this way amateurs and professionals can propose their works and visions about the region.

[@lithium94]

Très belle province!!!

[@194692654]

beautiful.

[@Oilbaron14]

To Newfoundland, I love you and I miss you!!

[@landonbenson3803]

beautiful

[@fundagonulsen4020]

What a visually stunning ad. I live in Ontario but as a kid we always drove out to the east coast particularly Newfoundland, this ad and song reminds me of the last summer I spent with my mom. I know the song is from the Fortunate Ones, but does anyone know the name of the song?

[@breakabletape]

0:30 - Salmon Cove! Just a jaunt down the Neck.

[@beccam510]

I’m sitting here watching this like wow this is such an amazing place I’m lucky to live here but at the same time I had to walk down a flat road at an angle cause the wind was about to take me 😂😂

[@bootskennedy6426]

Hahahahahaha and then came Snowmageddon 2020 in Newfoundland.

[@wendyu.9461]

Where can I get this song? It's so uplifting and makes me want to get on a plane right now.

[@lenarminio1185]

Outstanding campaign once again! Who is singing the "Crayons" spot??

[@newfoundlandandlabrador]

+Len Arminio The song is performed by Catherine Allan from Fortunate Ones

[@inversion66]

I'd been wondering if it was Michelle McAdorey of Crash Vegas.

[@SuzanneHiron]

+Len Arminio Do you know who produced the clip ? It's stunning, a true work of art. I'm sure it would win any advertising agency award of excellence.

[@stephanbelanger3041]

+Tim Gueguen Catherine Allan?

[@elizabethravenwalters6055]

Kira Willey is the composer and original artist of the song "Colors".

[@MrJayehawk]

Nfld is awesome...on the days when the weather is decent.

[@Jangle2007]

HELP! I've spent three hours on google earth trying to find the location of the beautiful scene at 0:18. Can anybody point me in the right direction?

[@guffylips5315]

Brigus, conception bay,newfoundland, just been to blueberry festival, there.

[@darlenehyde2061]

[@speakingspark]

Did you make this video, Newfoundland & Labrador Tourism? Or did you hire someone to do it, and if so - who? It's AMAZING! I'd love to know the font used for the lettering for "Salmon Cove"!

[@Tenebrius1963]

Where are those houses at 1:12?

[@Jangle2007]

[@frances1572]

+SuperMyth1985 I was always proud of where I'm from and yes this is "god's country" compared to most country's but that was then this is now and I no longer think that

[@lauramckenzie1638]

Another great commercial
