Foley Effects

Imagen
Foley effects are sound effects added to the film during post production (after the shooting stops). They include sounds such as footsteps, clothes rustling, etc. The technique is named after Jack Foley, who established the basic modern techniques still used today. Like most terms that are named in honour of a person, it is customary to spell Foley with a capital "F". The boom operator's job is to clearly record the dialogue, and only the dialogue. At first glance it may seem odd that we add back to the soundtrack the very sounds the sound recordists tried to exclude. But the key word here is control. By excluding these sounds during filming and adding them in post, we have complete control over the timing, quality, and relative volume of the sound effects. The Foley artists can clearly see a screen which displays the footage they are to add sound fx to, and they perform their sound effects while watching this screen for timing. The actions they perform can...

Radio genres

The radio offers differents way to communicate ideas: Musical genre: it's the simplest way to express in the radio and it's related to the music (as the title say). This genre is divided into subgenres: Magazines : is one of the most common genres of radio production.

Types of audio format

Imagen
I'm going to analyze the differents types of audio format: MP3, WAV, AIFF, DSD & MQA. MP3 If you are interested in having some fidelity in the audio, a decent sound in your files, you should avoid this format. Why? Basically because it is a file that sacrifices the audio quality to minimize the size. WAV Waveform Audio Format are just as common, but better for anyone who wants a decent audio format. They are files of higher resolution than MP3. A WAV file is encoded by a medium called PCM (Pulse Code Modulation). A medium that encodes the analog audio pieces and converts them into digital. AIFF Audio Interchange File Format is very similar to WAV, it also uses PCM. This format appeared as an answer of Apple before the WAV of Microsoft. Currently, AIFF and WAV are more or less interchangeable. We will see them in online transmission service. DSD Direct Digital Stream. Sony and Philips began experimenting with very high quality audio CODEX and th...
