Never heard the term “Foley” artist. That’s fascinating! Bit of a mighty fucking ear trigger on the eating/crunching sounds though, yikes.

Those dudes have pretty awesome jobs.

Really, you’ve never heard of Foley? It’s in all movies and shows. We did a bit of that in my Surround Sound class when I was getting my B.S. Pretty fun stuff.

I just never heard the term! I always though it was just “sound designers”. I didn’t know this practice itself was exclusive to its own thing. super cool.

in college i took a foley class and there was a room with a sand pit, a bunch of weird instruments and toys for recording in. really fun class but foley is no joke, we all take that stuff for granted.
our final project was to pick from a selection of silent clips and record your own foley on it and i got the trailer for assassins creed 2 or something and it was of a giant battle and getting that ensemble battle/crowd sound is super tricky. the entire trailer seemed weirdly quiet cuz i couldnt quite pull it off.

We did something like that in my Surround Sound class, except we were doing foley, ADR, and music. Initially I was in a group with this girl in my class, but I brought in a pirated copy of Knowing to do the plane crash scene, and my instructor noticed the dialog and video were out of sync, also it was a really busy scene, and with only the two of us in the group, we got split and merged into other groups. He also gave an announcement to the class to not pirate movies lol which was most probably because he knew it was pirated, but I ended up working on a scene from Riki-Oh! with another group, but it turned out pretty good.
