foley

Foley is a filmmaking process that involves creating or recording everyday sounds—like footsteps, clothing rustles, or object handling—to enhance the audio experience of a film or video. These sounds are added during post-production to make scenes feel more realistic and immersive. For example, footsteps on different surfaces or the clinking of keys are recreated in a studio by Foley artists to match the actions on screen. This technique helps deepen the audience's connection to the story by providing authentic sound cues that complement the visual elements.
