Silence is not always golden - did you know many of your favourite films rely heavily on the creative use of sound effects to breathe life into the universe within them?


Join us at Blueprints, an audio post-production facility that caters to the music, film and television industries, for a crash course in the fundamentals of foley creation and sound design. You’ll learn about the origins of foley, and have your hand at bringing life to a movie scene through the use of cloth, footsteps, props and other miscellaneous sound effects.
