Foley Sound Experiment:
What is foley?
'Foley effects are sound effects added to the film during post production (after the shooting stops). They include sounds such as footsteps, clothes rustling, crockery clinking, paper folding, doors opening and slamming, punches hitting, glass breaking, etc. etc. In other words, many of the sounds that the sound recordists on set did their best to avoid recording during the shoot.'*
We created two sound effects: knocking on a wooden door and spraying perfume.
To achieve the sound of a knock at the door, we recorded one of us knocking on a glass window. Although the sound was loud and effective, the glass made it echo so the sound wasn't deep enough to create the effect of a knock at a wooden door.
To create the effect of spraying perfume we used a perfume bottle and sprayed into the recorder, however we found the noise was to quiet. Instead, we used a deodorant spray can, which created the desired effect we wanted.
