We mainly use SFX because for example if I wanted to have a scene where Edd shot Casey I couldn't actually have that happen so I would film Edd shooting a gun and add the sound effect in after. This all heighten the experience and makes scene more believable without sound effects we would have very unrealistic films. SFX/sound are just as important as the image/visual without either we won't have the standard of film we have now.
What are the advantages of using SFX's in TV and Film productions? What do they add to overall production?
In today's industry SFX is used more than ever and it replaces most sound from the original for a more crisp. It allows you the chance to do things which aren't possible in production and live action. The main point and advantage of SFX is to make it more realistic.
What are the disadvantages of using SFX's in TV and Film productions?
In many Sci-fi program they overuse SFX's and this makes it unrealistic. An example of this is in a many Sci-fi programs like Doctor Who overuse the sound effect of laser guns.
What is the job description of a Foley artist?
A Foley Artist creates and performs replacement sound effects in sync to picture in a recording studio, such as footsteps, clothing and properties’ noises, paper movement, doors creaking, dogs scratching etc. They work under the direction of a Sound Editor and often use their own extensive collection of small props. They are the unseen actors who reproduce sounds, required when the original track is either unusable or completely replaced as in the case of foreign versions.
