Script

Scripting for sound 

Whether it's a live action movie or a animated cartoon, all sound has to be scripted before it is produced. This includes sound for foley and voice acting. Below are some examples of the two scripted. 

Foley 

Foley is a sound that is made in a recording booth by a person called a Foley artist (Foley is discussed in more detail in another blog). They will act out the sounds to the script in accordance to timing of the footage. Most movies before the 2000s that had recorded foley sounds were noticeable as it would be louder than the actual actor. 




Voice acting 

Scripts are also made for voice actors who are going to speak their part as their character or even make sounds for a type of foley (a baby gurgle or a monster). Like the script for foley, this has the character's name, their timing and their action that they are performing (so if a voice actor needs to be quiet or loud).
