LIVE: Foley
I am currently in Savalas doing the foley for I Love Luci. So I thought I'd do a live blog to cover the event a there is quite a bit of sitting about and just watching for me in this process.
I am away from my on computer so you'll have to do without photos for now I'm afraid. I'll try and describe what's going on:
I'm sitting in a booth with the sound recordist watching little snippets of the final cut pop up on the screen. We watch it back and forth and the foley artist decides on what kind of implement is best to match the sound of the picture.
Our booth has a huge window looking on to the foley artist in a studio that is not too dissimilar to most sound studios, but, it has pits in the floor with different types of road surface, floor surface and anything else you might find underfoot. There is a back room with bikes, cutlery, pots, different kinds of shoes, cloth, glass, metals etc etc. All necessary for replicating the rich tapestry of sounds that surround us every day as we wonder through the world, and of course for making sounds from other worlds too.
We will be spending the next few hours shaking old bike frames, rattling tea spoons and rubbing bits of leather against and an old shirt. We even have a dog we can record of necessary.

My goodness, Colin, all you mention in your last few posts sounds so very complicated & complex. Thank you for describing it. Boggles the mind. I knew that sound was added in after the fact but had never thought about using this process to also alter performances. That's very interesting.
I was alerted to check in on your blog by Sue - glad I followed the trail from her blog.
Best of luck with finishing your film & congratulations on the music video nomination - it was hilarious (hope that's the response you wanted from viewers!)

Hi Anna,
Thank you so much for commenting, I wasn't sure if anyone was actually reading this blog any more!
Yes, I think the video should be seen as funny. It's got a little dark edge to it but it wasn't definitely conducted in very good humour. Of course it's always a serious endeavour but we had a great laugh doing it.
If there's anything you'd like to see on the blog that I'm not covering then please just ask and I'll answer any questions.
Of course, that goes for anyone else following the progress of the film.
Colin
