FOLEY TRACK

While researching the importance of Foley Artists in film making, i found these two videos and thought they were very interesting and useful. So, here they are!
The first video explains the importance of the Foley Track and gives us examples
SUMMARY OF VIDEO 1

-FOLEY : putting sound in sync to pictures IN REAL TIME
- This includes: feet, hands, cloth, hard effects of human touch.
- Movements are re-recorded and replaced.
- A lot of the time, the Foley Track is there to help dialogue.
- There is a trial and error aspect to working out sounds.
-This is followed by more advanced sound editing and mixing of the created sounds.

The second video, which i loved, is about the Foley Track used in Peter Jackson's King Kong (2005.)
This video is so interesting because it shows how each sound is made in relation to the movie. Take a look!

SUMMARY VIDEO 2
- The term 'Foley' came after Jack Foley, who started the whole process.
-EVERY sound is done individually.
-When doing footsteps,a character's mannerisms and weight changes need to be considered.
