Storyteller, Director, Chaos Navigator

​

Zach Guerra has ridden just about every ride in the entertainment theme park — and probably broken a few speed records along the way. A filmmaker with the instincts of a street magician and the résumé of a Fortune 500 CCO, Zach’s work spans award-winning commercials, cinematic stunts, and globe-trotting productions that teeter deliciously between high art and high-octane.

​

Owner of DGA signatory company War Path LLC, he’s directed 20+ national campaigns, ghostwritten 8 screenplays, led creative on $30M+ worth of content, and worked with brands like Apple, ESPN, Virgin Voyages, Chick-fil-A, Uber, Land Rover (winner of 3 Cannes Lions), Colgate, and Smart Energy. (That last one? Five million views in a week — and a Creative Circle Award for good measure.) He’s also produced stunning print work with 10th & Hudson Inc., across five continents, shot in a dozen languages he only half speaks, and still made the call sheet.

​

In the indie world, Zach cut his teeth at USCs famed School of Cinematic Arts MFA program, where he wrote and directed the multi-award winning THE DEVIL'S DOSH, a period gangster romp in London that caught the eye of Joe Carnahan (NARC, and THE GREY) and led to representation by CAA. Since then, he’s been hustling across the genre spectrum — crafting feature scripts, shooting wild docs (CANNON SHOT, the world’s largest croquet match — I kid you not), and mentoring up-and-comers while doing his own laundry.

​

Now? Zach doesn't stop. He's the co-founder of Revolutionary VP, a boundary-pushing virtual production studio headquartered in The DMV. Think LED walls, Unreal Engine, and the kind of cinematic tools once reserved for Marvel — now democratized for filmmakers, creators, and brands looking to make some real noise. It's part production lab, part creative dojo, and part economic supercharger for the Mid-Atlantic.

 

Oh — and that whole “used to be a Naval Aviator flying S-3 Vikings in combat” thing? Let’s just say he knows how to land a jet... and a punchline.
