Foley (filmmaking)

In filmmaking, Foley is the action of everyday sound effects that are added to films, videos, and other media in post-production to make better audio quality. It is named after sound-effects artist Jack Foley. Foley sounds are used to enhance the sound experience of a movie. They can be anything from the sound of clothing and footsteps to doors opening and breaking glass. Foley can also be used to cover up sounds captured on the set of a movie during filming, such as airplanes or traffic.Singer, Philip R. "Art of Foley". Marblehead Publishing Co. Web. 1 July 2010.
