Foley Artists

Most sound in movies is after the movie in a studio by a foley artist

What is a foley artist?

A foley artist is someone that uses a range of props to record the everyday sounds that we hear in films that the microphone would not pick up on set. For example, this could be a door opening a horse walking on sand. 

They tell stories through sound 


how do they do it?


They have a studio with loads of props and spend hours finding sounds out of these props.

here is a clip of a foley artist in a studio. Often very common sounds are made in obscure ways.


The film a Quiet Place makes use of foley sounds, the echolocation sound that the aliens make was made using snapping celery.
