The book thoroughly covers all aspects of the craft: its history and evolution, the minutiae of recording footsteps and props, prepping and mixing. It is an excellent guide for both teachers and people who want to learn this largely unknown part of the post-production process. Harry Cheney, Professor, Lawrence and Kristina Dodge College of Film and Media Arts, Chapman University Praise for the second edition This book is entertaining, informative and an absolute must-read for everyone who wants to make a career in sound, as well as being a very handy lesson for anyone involved in production on whatever level - and a particularly valuable aid for 'media' course tutors. Wendy Laybourn, Network Nine News Thanks to this publication, sound is appraised as a subjective art form. So whether you're a novice (i.e. what even is Foley? ) or a whizz ( pfft, why do I need to read about Jack? ), there truly is much to learn from this book. Seek The Foley Grail. Matt Howsam, Raindance.org Comprising a virtual master class on leading-edge Foley techniques, The Foley Grail covers just about everything a practitioner or observer of the Foley process would need to create convinving sounds for a variety of film and television...a must-have test for any post professional's bookshelf.
