If You Love Boating, Spread the Word With The Discover Boating Facebook Movie Maker

An exciting new feature of the Discover Boating campaign is the Facebook Movie Maker.

For people who love boating (and who doesn't!) the Discover Boating ad campaign has just launched the new Facebook "Welcome to the Water Movie Maker" app. The movie maker app is LIVE on Facebook.com/DiscoverBoatingCanada "Welcome to the Water Movie Maker" and it enables boaters to create their own customized short boating movie using photos of their favourite boating memories. Once created, the personalized boating movie can be shared with family and friends on Facebook. In addition to using their own photos, boaters can choose their favourite music, background theme and write their own captions to create their individual 'Welcome to the Water' movie.
