Foleys - not as easy as it looks !

Over the Summer I was asked to contribute foleys to an indie scottish indie horror movie called "The Dead Outside" http://www.thedeadoutside.co.uk/ - the Film was shown at Film4's Frightfest in August to good reviews.

I took the job on but found it incredibly difficult to record the quiet sounds that they needed without picking up huge amounts of noise - in the end, without access to a professional recording studio I had to admit defeat and pull out of the project.

A real learning experience and certainly will not treat foleys so lightly in the future !
