Google’s First Australian Ad Is Made Of Feels


You’ve probably seen us post cool Google ads before, but this one is a little different. It’s the first one made in Australia for Australians, and it’s made of good feelings.

The ad was produced by a digital agency called Mark, and it shows a small child who is rubbish at cricket using his Nexus 7 to get better, studying the teachings of Don Bradman and watching Ricky Ponting techniques on YouTube.

It’s actually kind of jarring at first to hear a strong ‘Strayan accent using Voice Search, but as the video goes on you get filled up with warm feelings as the kid teaches himself how to slog it like a boss.

Check it out. [mUmbrella]
