The sound of noise

Sound is important, that line has been hammers into my head since day one and this article is all about it. Sound in a movie isn't all recorded in the same place they take all sound they need from all different places and combined them in editing. This process was invented by by a man named Jack Foley who would win a life time achievement award for his work. This created the idea for three sound mixers used wile filming one for dialog, one for music, and finally one for sound effects. These sound effects are broken down into further groups that like library effects and Foley.  Foley created named after jack Foley they consist of sound effects like walking, running, drinking that sort of stuff and remember its about the feel not the sound.

I liked that the article was mostly video and that it was the same guy as last time. I vaguely remember Foley beng used in the sound story so its nice to know the background  little more.
