Week 3 - Foley (movie sound effects)

Today we learned about how movie sound effects are made in more detail (foley). We learned about how foley artists recreate sounds from visuals seen on the screen in a booth, using a variety of props and layers of sound to give the film an atmosphere. A notable foley artist named Lawrence Abu Hamdan used prisoners ('earwitnesses') to talk about their experiences there as they were blindfolded, sensing only sound.

I picked 3 different videos myself to add my original sound effects to, as they were varied in terms of the sounds they needed:

1. Charlie Chaplin Eating Machine Scene (silent film)

2. The 100 - Wells shooting a wild cat and saving Bellamy's life

3. The Last Samurai - Ninja fight scene
