Hearing is our most prominent sense. Unlike the visual, sound is a 360-degree omnipresent experience that surrounds us constantly. MZed and Frank Serafine bring to you The Sound Advice Tour. During this 33-city tour attendees will be exposed to an overview of the roles sound plays in a film, web, and broadcast production. Designed for filmmakers, editors, and aspiring sound engineers, this workshop will cover all the techniques and tools needed to expand skills and give attendees a solid foundation to effectively use sound, in a variety of projects.

Frank's workshop will teach attendees how to implement important functions including: sound recording, sound editing, sound effects, soundtrack, sound mixing, sound design and sound inspiration. Sound alone takes credit for 70% of a movie's success and, unlike visual presentation sound is a 360-degree experience that surrounds us constantly. Having already done tours on cinematography, editing and directing, MZed created the Sound Advice tour to showcase the importance of mastering sound design for filmmakers.

In the past MZed has partnered up with many noteworthy instructors on filmmaking tours such as, Alex Buono, Adam Epstein, Shane Hurlbut and Vincent-Laforet.
