FOLEY EFFECTS

ASSIGNMENT 1

BRAINSTORMING

1. Why must they create every single sound for animations and games?

The reason why they need to make sounds for everything is because animations and games don't come with any audio so therefore, they create these to make it realistic.

2. Why can't actors/actresses actually smash a glass to have the real effect?

They might not end up getting the sound effect they want to use and it's also dangerous to do activities like so because it could potentially hurt someone.

3. Why can't actors/actresses use real explosions?

It's dangerous to use actual explosions and it is expensive and it could possibly be illegal.

4.  Why can't movie crews install a real phone that actually calls the actor/actress?

it would be hard to record both calls on each person.

5.  Why can't actors/actress attach microphones to their ankles to record the actual sounds?

It would interrupt the microphones while recording and it wouldn't sound the same.

6.  Why can't actors/stuntmen/ and actresses/stunt women do their own fight scenes and actually make contact to make it look real??

It could endanger the actor which could mean that it would also endanger the production of the movie and would delay it.

7.  How do sound designers/directors know what all these science fiction sounds are supposed to sound like?

They try to relate it to real life sounds and see if anything to relates to their imaginations of what they think it would sound.
