A VIBRANT VISION FOR TOURISM

A cinematic and soulful new video of the Central Queensland Highlands has been added to CHDC’s tourism marketing toolbox.

The one-minute showcase of the region is now on YouTube, social media and other online platforms, and on display at Emerald Airport and various trade and travel shows, including the Rockhampton Expo.

Viewers are promised the ultimate adventure, using a montage of vibrant, scenic footage of Carnarvon Gorge, Blackdown Tableland, Sapphire Gemfields, Emerald, Minerva Hills National Park, Capella and Lake Maraboon.

The video clocked more than 33 thousand views and increased traffic to the Central Queensland Highlands website by more than 140 percent, following a recent advertising campaign by CHDC.

Local tourism operators are strongly encouraged to use the video, along with other promotional tools created by CHDC, as part of their own marketing activities.

The video was filmed and produced by travel photographer and videographer Jesse Lindemann. Images captured on the shoot will feature in the next edition of the Central Queensland Highlands Visitor Guide and then be available to local businesses for free, on request. Contact CHDC for more information.
