Foley Sound

Foley sound is the creation of your own sound. Foley sound is used in many major films and television shows, as sounds have to fit the action that audiences see on screen to ensure that the visuals are believable. An example of this would be, if a man is walking down a street then the audience would expect footsteps to be audible. This will create a sense realism to the audience. Foley sound will not be a large aspect of our film, as we are having voice-overs and quite music for most of it, but we do need to consider this in our film.

To make our film authentic we will have to take foley sound into consideration. We will be creating some of our own sounds, which will include rain, footsteps, a door slamming, a door creaking (undecided), the sound of a radio out of tune and many more. To do this we will record each of these sounds individually and then simply delete the video footage. To get the sound of rain pouring down a window we will use a hose-pipe and a window and record the sound. We will repeat the process of this with all of our other objects. This will make our film seem credible, and give it a sense of professionalism.
