Macedonia Timeless with new video

Lazy Holidays

The film was made in the town of Ohrid in Macedonia (Ohrid). In our travels we bring a few photos;). The best way to preserve memories is shooting video. In this way, better get to know the country and people, we establish direct contact easier. We remember an elderly couple, resulting in a small shop with regional products, Sanja sculpture, street vendors corn, cotton candy, and ... hairdressers, who opened their bets after dark.
But Ohrid is primarily a city full of monuments which have been inscribed in 1980 on UNESCO World Heritage List.
In the film, left for the church of St. Sophia, in which are preserved frescoes of the eleventh century, the ancient theater, the church of St. John at Kaneo of the fourteenth century, the church of St. Panteleimon, the walk ends at the fortress of Tsar Samuel, resulting in the X-XI centuries. However, the city has much more to offer. With beautiful Ohrydu soon show you a few more production. Stay tuned!

New Macedonia Timeless video: Macedonian food.

TV video "Macedonian Wine - Timeless" promoted

T-Rex production in cooperation with the Government promoted Friday a new video in the Macedonia Timeless series, whose aim is to promote Macedonian wine. The Euro 120.000 video, which will be aired on global TV channels, was directed by Ivo Trajkov, written by Zlatko Kalenikov and actor Nikola Ristanovski stars in it.
The video was shot at vineyards characteristic for Macedonia, in the wine cellars of Bovin and Skovin and at famous Macedonian sites. - This video is what our wine needs, because it presents the entire process of production - from vineyards to bottling to branding. The goal is to inform the world about the unique taste and centuries-long tradition, Minister of Agriculture, Forstry and Water Management Ljupco Dimovski stated after seeing the video.
Screenwriter Kalenikov said the video illustrated in the best possible manner that wine had been produced in Macedonia for centuries. - The idea was to illustrate the tradition of making and drinking wine in Macedonia through the three main ways of wine tasting - color, scent and taste. Color brings us back in ancient time, scent in 19th century and taste reflects modern times, said Kalenikov.
- I'm glad we've made a commercial which first and foremost has a story and concrete objective. Only the quality of our wine needs to be promoted.
This is the goal of Government's propaganda, director Trajkov stated. Due to favourable geographical location and weather conditions, Macedonia has myriad opportunities to produce quality wine, which thus far was not promoted enough or branded.
