Foley sound design

Foley sound design is the art of creating everyday sound effects for film, television, and other media that enhance the audio experience. Named after sound effects artist Jack Foley, it involves recording sounds in a studio to match the actions on screen, such as footsteps, rustling clothing, or door creaks. Foley artists use various props and techniques to produce realistic sounds, helping to immerse the audience in the story. This behind-the-scenes work is crucial for achieving a believable and engaging sound environment, ensuring that the final production feels polished and lifelike.
