Posted bt P&O on facebook great passenger Video of the Fjords


P&O Cruises


We love this video, created by passenger Stuart and his partner following their recent cruise to the Fjords. We're glad you both had a great time, we'll look forward to seeing you again soon!

Take a look at their excellent video on the link below...

I thought filming in the theatre and casino was forbidden?

Great editing, though.

That was excellent. It brought back a lot of memories for us and they looked as though they had a fantastic time. I just wish we were as clever as that at videoing and editing. Perhaps PO ought to give them the job of advertising their cruises.

I think it said his job was in photography, but it still very well done .

P&O put it on FB so not only is it a personal holiday recording it is good publicity for P&O

We did this cruise on 28th June so brought back memories. Brilliant and loved The Lord of The Rings piece. Great choice of music as well. P&O should definately give him a job,!!!!

Brilliant video! Looks like it is back to the drawing board for me. It brought back many happy memories of our cruises to Norway.

Very good.
They did another one a few months back on the P&O Facebook page when they went to Brugge.

P&O could certainly learn a thing or two from it - the official cruise diary DVD that they produced for E304 earlier this year mainly featured people dancing in Le Club. It showed practically nothing of the ship. My mum wrote and complained - got a full refund.

After my wife's accident on our last cruise and the pain she has suffered since I was looking to do a Fjords cruise next May this video has now convinced me that its a great idea

Impressed! I think it will definitely resonate with the younger target market.
If I were involved with P&O marketing I would consider commissioning these guys to do a similar vids for Mediterranean and Caribbean fly cruising.

if you edit out the many many many overblow shots of his partner, you end up with much shorter video
which is more relevant than looking at his partner doing yoga on the balcony or doing lingering looks into the camera

I did enjoy it but it is a video of their cruise so bound to be personal to them prefer my cruise video's, I make a short one for public viewing and a long one for private viewing. :D 8-)
