The Foley Production Process

When planning for our movie opening, me and my partners wanted to create uniqueness in our story by implementing one thing, foley sounds. Foley sounds are the art of creating and recording everyday sounds effects to replace or enhance sounds that were captured on set. We made these sounds, so they are performed in sync and make the opening feel natural, detailed and immersive.

We created simple but effective sounds such as regular walking, a zipper noise, car doors and getting out of cars. My partner Kai created these sounds for us fortunately and even sent us drafts that we can observe to see if it's well or not. He created this simply being in a slight hollow room (bathroom) and used a variety of items to create sounds. For example, for walking, he grabbed two shoes and simply created the walking motion by slapping them on the ground repetitive. For the zipper, he simply just opened a duffel bag from a zipper.

If you want to see the examples of the foley sounds of how they were created, look at the some of videos below. (Click the Link)
