The Foley Grail by Vanessa Theme Ament
Helps to create custom sound effects that are the mainstay of soundtracks for films, broadcast, animation and games. This title also helps to earn how Foley is designed, crafted and edited for any project - right down to the nuts and bolts of spotting, cueing, and performing sounds."Ament's book is valuable in putting the spotlight on this aspect of sound postproduction, in establishing a 'classical' baseline against which the variations of animation and game Foley performance can be judged, and, occasionally, in its suggestions as to what these variations may beRather than revolving around the less specific notion of 'sound design', future crucial reflection on animation and game sounds can only benefit by feeding in the kind of specialist practical knowledge Ament provides about the aural footprint left by a very particular aspect of the sound production process."--Animation: An Interdisciplinary Journal
