Why are they doing this project?

The Guelzo brothers are passionate about investing in upcoming filmmakers. Although they believe it is important to read books and hear instructions, they stress that we also need to see the practical applications of technique. That is why they have created and setup Project Volare, because they believe, as we do here at Pro Tools Expert, that visual learning is one of the best ways to learn, especially in filmmaking.

Will there be more episodes?

Do you want more? We hope so. If these first 6 episodes are well received, they plan to create a “second season”. An all new story, all new short, and new videos with tips and advice on how to make your films great.

Want to learn more?

Jonah Guelzo has produced a wide range of content for us over the years, including tutorials about Sounds In Sync Ediload and EdiCue, Basehead sound effects management software and a series of interviews with leading industry professionals.
