I don’t think I’ll ever look at film and video games the same after learning about foley artists. I’ll always be thinking about how certain sounds were made. It’s fascinating really.

[@VeroDyr]

Diiferent level of ASMR, picking up things, listening to them and use them as props for sounds. So fascinating!

[@jonp.1084]

I work with foley on a smaller level and this brought so much insight into the depths that is the art of foley. Makes we want to go to the thrift shop and look for sound makers.

[@GingerGM01]

If you don’t mind me asking, how does one get started with this?

[@jonp.1084]

​@@GingerGM01 This really is almost an impossible question to answer. You can go to school for recording and try and find an internship somewhere or begin experimenting on your own which is what I did. You have to really really want to get involved with it. It's not something you can do in passing. You have to almost find a way to do it if that makes sense. Or sometimes people just fall into it by connections or happenstance, like they know someone who is already involved. It's one of those odd careers where there really isn't a straight route to get there.

[@dudleybarker2273]

approach a local theatre company maybe, or find small filmmakers near you?

[@davidcamarda8723]

This is amazing. The true hidden art of movie making. All the speakers on the walls that surround you in a theater are there to immerse you and carry you away from yourself and into the story. These are the artists, and their craft that are an integral part of movie making. Try watching a movie with the sound turned off.

[@dudleybarker2273]

I would love to be able to turn the soundtrack down and just listen to the foley

[@termicat1356]

Really very interesting! In this site, practically everything has been created ... The list is almost infinite. In particular, a TV show made to the 70s made to Pinewood returns to me. The protagonists of the show were kids and a butler who with the help of a speaking mechanical owl, managed to travel through time through a temporal passage that came to create inside a pendulum clock; operated by the same owl. Unfortunately I don't remember the title and on the internet there is nothing about it, but I am sure that it was carried out in these study; because I remember very well the introduction of the show with the writing Pinewood

[@ReservoirDolphin]

This goes into some great detail about the process. Much more than most of the other videos I’ve seen. The Baby Driver segment especially was really interesting. Good stuff.

[@theoliviaarchives4794]

What a great team to work with.

[@RufusEatsCheese]

A wonderful group of expressive professionals.

[@kae4466]

i loved listening to tapes of the old style radio shows from the 1930s and 40s as many of them were live and had their own sound efx on stage with the radio actors and the foley artists would coordinate with the radio voice artists.: would drive my older sister crazy erimitating sounds . ps there are a lot of unseen and unsung artists that one never sees during a film.

[@WillPattenden]

If I weren't studying cinematography at uni I would be a Foley Artist. I am fascinated by sound in film and TV and how it's audio that can make or break it. This was a lovely mini documentary to watch I hope you put out more like this :D

[@stevecox7075]

Will Pattenden : I have also always wanted to be a Foley artist. 😀

[@StewartBrand85]

Great video, really like that main guy

[@cheynepearson1960]

Layering the sounds for that Tarzan scene must have been intensive work I bet

[@duaneyaiser5294]

I show your "Secret World of Foley" film to my music students every semester! You have the most musical non-musical occupation. :-)

[@isgardbr]

i show this to my creative media students every year too.... so insightful and inspiring for their Foley unit.

[@17samalex]

BRILLIANT

[@Cortinaman63]

The highly professional but also so warm and friendly attitude of this team from Pinewoods Foley Dept, is what I loved about working on films at Pinewood, a Fantastic studios, with the best film makers and everyone just so nice, in ever part of the Studios, Any Film fans reading this might like to see "PINEWOOD STUDIOS 1984 on my channel, a look at 2 iconic (Film Sets) built at Pinewood , Exclusive never seen photos of the backlots in 1984. and a few other TV/Film related videos remembering big stars I worked with or knew over the years, I enjoyed this video, hope others enjoy mine about Pinewood too.

[@markthomas8018]

Price work or by the hour?

[@antonybarrett789]

Hello, Really enjoyed that. Reminded me of doing Drama at School eg, but obviously much more professionally. It got me wondering though. Are these sounds you're creating stored as sound samples, that can be controlled and modified on a computer eg, Rather like PCM sounds on a digital Keyboard, Drums, Sirens, Dog barking etc, or are you creating them in real time for a given piece of film ? As only about Ten percent may be used, I wondered if sampled sounds could be applied directly from a database of sampled sounds more efficiently. The work you do is still required and invaluable obviously to create the realistic sounds. Very clever stuff !!! Hadn't thought about Marble floor being wooden eg. Thanks. Antony Barrett. Thatcham.

[@dbdb9334]

Very educational Thank you.

[@ct026]

Does anyone know how to get started in Foley as a job?

[@dylos89]

Dream job

[@Pwg1985]

Favorite film made at pinewood is Batman. Then the 007 films

[@Larriex97]

British Foley Artists :)

[@elieh.studio]

It is a little sad to hear that sometimes only 10% of what they're doing will go to the final mix

[@dudleybarker2273]

same with film footage - I worked as a setbuilder for some years, and a project that took weeks to build was lucky if it got 2 seconds of screen time... that's the movies for you - it's more about having fun in the moment that the final product

[@JahZilla_inc]

This is the difference between audio in low budget films vs films with bigger budgets....SOUND

[@Jakeboyy199]

[@cryptogaming9935]

[@LonnieLawless]

I think I've finally found my calling.

[@Deebashis-Dutta]

Yes, Everything is going well, but now the question is... How many films in a year? LOL

[@fasthummingbird]

8:48 I see SACK BOY, from Little Big Planet!!!!!

[@chriswright4677]

Ironic that a video about sound has bad sound quality itself.

[@dudleybarker2273]

I listened to it with headphones on and it was pretty perfectly recorded and balanced to my ear

[@nigelwilliams9307]

Interesting but it's probably better not to watch this..it makes you realise how fake movies are.

[@memesforlife6804]

I don’t like this
