The footsteps, fabric rustles and tiny physical sounds in a film are often performed later by Foley artists.

Why it matters

The idea in context

Foley is the craft of performing everyday sounds in sync with the image: footsteps on gravel, a coat sleeve moving, a cup placed on a table. If it works, the viewer forgets it was made. The invisible craft makes the fiction feel solid.

Türkçe

Aynı kart, başka bir dilde.

Bir filmde duyduğumuz ayak sesleri, kumaş hışırtıları ve küçük fiziksel ayrıntılar çoğu zaman çekimden sonra Foley sanatçıları tarafından yeniden icra edilir.

Foley, görüntüyle eşzamanlı biçimde gündelik sesleri üretme sanatıdır: çakılda yürüyen ayaklar, kıpırdayan bir ceket kolu, masaya bırakılan bir fincan. İyi yapıldığında fark edilmez. Tam da bu yüzden güçlüdür; görünmeyen emek, kurmaca dünyayı dokunulabilir hâle getirir.
