Quote from: Hermit on 2006-10-09 19:58:50 [Blunderov] Yes I agree: a pro job. The visual cutaways are relatively easy to contrive. But the soundtrack is very skillfull. There seems to be a consistent ambient room sound track and there are very few noticeable pops on the audio splices.
Oddly, the sound technician who records and inserts the final sound fx in a soundtrack is known as the "Foley editor" The place where this is done is known as a "Foley stage".

Brilliant!!
A note on accuracy though – there are 3 elements to a creating a soundtrack (at least in TV/film) – FX, Foley and dialogue. The FX editor primarily uses libraries of sound effects (some of which they will have recorded themselves) whereas the Foley recorder/editor will work with Foley artists recording sounds such as, moves (the sound ones clothes make when in movement), footsteps, and any other sounds that have been agreed upon during what is know as a “spotting session.” That is where the FX editor(s) and Foley recorder/editor make decisions about what elements will be ‘recreated’ on the Foley stage.
