"How to Sound Design Your Life." This amusing video should cheer you up if you're feeling a bit down. It's a short film called The Foley Artist, and it shows how important sound design is with filmmaking. But it's also a nice short film with a fun story all packed into one impressive 3-minute video, directed by Oliver Holmes. Foley artists are the individuals who actually create the sound for films, using various objects and techniques in order to make the audience believe they're actually seeing what they're seeing. It is an art in and of itself, and it's fun to see the intercutting between the moments and the foley work in this film. Enjoy.
Description from Vimeo: "The Foley Artist sees a master of sound at work on a fashion film. If you’ve ever wanted to see the chasm between the finished product and the extraordinary lengths taken to produce it, this short is for you." Read more about foley work in filmmaking on Wikipedia. The short film is directed by Oliver Holmes, based on a screenplay written by Oliver Holms, Hettie Griffiths and Rob Jarvis, featuring cinematography by Rob Jarvis. It stars Georgia Waters as the girl, and Ian Macnaughton as the foley artist. For more info on the short, visit their Vimeo. For more shorts, click here. How charming was that?
