  3. What is Foley Effect? • Foley is creating and recording 'live' sound effects to be added to a film, video and other media program in the post-production stage, providing a controllable background layer of sound that produces a rich and realistic audio environment.

  4. These reproduced sounds can be of anything from the clothes rustling, breaking glass and footsteps to squeaky doors. • The real Foley art is so well integrated into a film that it goes unrecognized by the viewers. • It basically helps to generate a real sense of reality within a scene. • Without these crucial background noises, films feel unnaturally quiet and awkward.

  5. Why is it called Foley? • This technique is named after Jack Foley, who created the basic modern techniques which is still used. • Like most terms that are named in honour of a person, it is common to spell Foley with a capital "F".

  7. Most of a production’s soundtrack is added in post-production for several reasons: • Some time situation is faked during filming. • Some situations just don’t really exist. • Sounds will not register adequately on microphones. • Additional sounds to be added to create mood and atmosphere. • Some action must be silent during filming to keep the original soundtrack clean for editing.

  8. Common Tricks Use to Create Sound Effect • Corn starch in a leather pouch creates the sound of snow crunching. • A pair of gloves sounds like bird feathers flapping. • A thin stick or arrow makes a sound of whoosh.

  9. An old chair makes a controllable creaking sound. • Cellophane creates crackling fire effects sound. • Walnuts are used in place of ice cubes in a glass of water because they don't melt. • Large and thin metal plates, when bent that produces the sound of thunder
