Sounds that can be made on a films soundtrack by a foley artist

Examples:

  • Thin sticks and dowel rods produce excellent whooshing SFX
  • Old chairs and stools are perfect for controlled creaking
  • Heavy-duty stapleguns serve for excellent gun noises
  • Roll up a large phonebook for realistic body punches
  • Twist and snap sticks of celery for convincing bone breaks
  • Corn starch inside a leather pouch makes the sound of snow crunching
  • Cut a coconut in half and line them with a soft material for a horse walking
  • Ball up and walk over old audio tape for the sound of grass footsteps
  • Locate an old car door to produce metal and car crash sounds
  • Flap a pair of cleaning gloves for the sound of realistic bird wings
