Award-winning music and video producer Andrew Gunadie \u2014 or gunnarolla to his YouTube fans \u2014 has come a long way since co-creating the viral video Canadian, Please. So far, in fact, that he can now add digital producer and host of Travel Channel\u2019s Nom Voyage to his portfolio.<\/p>\n

The series, which started out as a fun project for foodie and travel-lover Gunadie, explores \u201call the bites, worthy of a flight.\u201d After producing two segments for his own channel showcasing the dining experience in two of North America\u2019s busiest airports \u2014 LAX and Toronto Pearson International Airport \u2014 Gunadie received a call from an executive producer at Discovery Inc., Travel Channel\u2019s parent company.<\/p>\n

\u201cI was shocked,\u201d he says. \u201cI was doing it just for fun and building my portfolio of branded content. But it\u2019s been a dream come true. I have an opportunity and a budget, and it validates my worth in this business.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gunadie went on to shoot six more airport-themed episodes for the first season of Nom Voyage, and a second season of the series focused on dining experiences in cities, theme parks, and festivals. Each episode is true to not only the passion Gunadie has for the subject matter, but also the professional polish that caught Discovery\u2019s eye in the first place.<\/p>\n

After studying media theory and television production, Gunadie landed an internship on the reality show Canada\u2019s Next Top Model. There, he learned how to arrange hours-worth of footage alongside music and special effects to create engaging material \u2014 skills he routinely applies to his own content.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you have footage that, on its own, may not be that exciting and you add in the right pacing and audio, you can really elevate the viewer experience,\u201d says Gunadie. \u201cPicking out moments and soundbites helps to convey the essence of an eight-hour shoot in a compelling five-minute video.\u201d<\/p>\n

A full plate: talent, producer, and editor<\/h3>\n

In addition to hosting and producing each episode of Nom Voyage, Gunadie continues to take a hands-on approach to editing. Whether he\u2019s working with another editor or editing himself, he always uses Adobe Premiere Pro. \u201cI\u2019ve been a long-time user of Adobe Creative Cloud apps,\u201d says Gunadie. \u201cThey help me work faster and more efficiently while giving me the freedom to experiment artistically with content.\u201d<\/p>\n

If another editor is responsible for the first cut, Gunadie makes sure he arms her with the details he needs \u2014 beginning with a paper edit outlining the structure of each episode. This helps with the tight turnaround times they face to release each episode.<\/p>\n

From there, Gunadie might tighten up the pacing or make other edits to ensure a consistent look and feel. That means he has a lot on his plate \u2014 but features such as Speech to Text and Captioning Workflow in Premiere Pro streamline the editing process while maximizing accessibility and SEO.<\/p>\n

Gunadie also appreciates the efficiency of having all his creative assets in a single library that can be organized into binders, making them easier to find when working on multiple projects at the same time. And motion graphics templates, provided by the network he\u2019s working with that he can access in Premiere Pro, make the editorial workflow even faster. He uses Adobe Photoshop Lightroom to edit promotional images for Instagram and has also started experimenting with video clips from Adobe Stock. \u201cI can save time and money by not having to outsource projects, and by just going into Adobe Stock to find motion graphics that work,\u201d says Gunadie.<\/p>\n

Once his final stamp is on the cut, it is sent for color grading. The result is an episode that looks and feels like the rest \u2014 regardless of who the editor was. \u201cEach episode is a journey,\u201d he says. \u201cYou miss out on a lot if you\u2019re always chasing the destination \u2014 it\u2019s during the process where you learn the most.\u201d<\/p>\n

For Gunadie, that lesson had helped him to redefine success and secure other work within the Discovery family, including producer and host for HGTV Handmade\u2019s Handmade Tested and Travel Channel\u2019s Hit Me With Your Best Spots and TRVL\u2019s Late Night Rewind. Most importantly, he\u2019s doing work that showcases his art to an appreciative audience, and he wouldn\u2019t have it any other way.<\/p>\n
