🎶 #Neighbours, everybody needs good Neighbours. With a little understanding and a #Soundproofed party-wall 🎶 We're talking about #Domestic #Noise again this week, sorting your neighbours out without #Drama and getting a better night's sleep. READ: bit.ly/2MxOjy2

It's #FollowFriday, and since we're talking #Sound in #Film, let's go right to the A-list. Much of @GeorgeLucasILM properties have found a home at @Disney - @skywalkersound still independent, and setting the benchmark for film #effects and sound bit.ly/2JQUZ8V

From the #BigScreen to the #SilverScreen! We made a slick new #Audio #Testing #Suite for @Samsung for testing TVs in their #QA Labs in #Hampshire bit.ly/2kz2kOe

We completed a job for @SalfordUni, now the proud owners of their very own #FoleyBooth. What's a 'Foley Booth' you ask? Well clap some coconut shells together and saddle up! We're about to take you on a tour through the #GoldenAge of Hollywood. READ: bit.ly/2JCHzgC

Another great company we've had the pleasure of working with is Liverpool's @Ono_Post, who specialise in Film & TV post-production for people like @Channel4 @AMC_TV & @BBC. We built them an Edit Suite to compliment their relaxed and informal offices, READ: bit.ly/2JGZa6P

Creating suites for #sound #postproduction that are free of leakage & guaranteed to last is our game. But how do you get that perfect sound when in the field? The pro's at @sospublications walk you through #tech & #technique in this amazing guide, READ: bit.ly/2JBGWUs

Talking of #Cinema #Acoustics, we got the A-lister treatment at the historical, community run @PlazaCinema in Liverpool. This stunning theatre opened in 1939 and by the good graces of the community has stayed open. We fixed them up for some noise issues: bit.ly/2sJQJ4r

One part of Film SFX not thought about often is one most of us are closest to: How it sounds in Cinemas. Your average auditorium may seem dull but, like your favourite movies, there's much work done behind the scenes to deliver the experience to you. READ: bit.ly/2sJQJ4r

That also wasn't our first job at @dock10, having had the pleasure of #soundproofing in and around their #sound suites for them the previous year. READ more: bit.ly/2f6XmJP

Amazing article from @epicsound, consultants on @totalwar games & @LEGO_Group's #HeroFactory. An A-Z of Foley Art: bit.ly/2MiWFt7 "I personally like putting things in whole chickens and then beating the chicken with a sledge hammer or other bludgeoning device."

The new @SalfordUni #FoleyBooth isn't our first foray into the world of media. We were just down the road last year at @dock10 in #Salford's @MediaCityUK building a new #soundproof #studio, ready for use on @BBCTheVoiceUK, @BBCMOTD & @C4Countdown. READ: bit.ly/2ikKC3w

(2) And here's @SalfordUni's Foley Studio, made by us at #Floorscan 😍😍

(1) #Foley Studios are still used in Film, TV & Radio, providing an organic, low-maintenance and cost-effective approach to #Sound Editing and Design. These are, left, legendary Japanese film company @toho_movie's (#Godzilla, #StudioGhibli) and, right, @wbpictures Foley Studios.

A 'Foley Booth' or 'Foley Pit' is named after Jack #Foley, a pioneering #SoundEffects artist in #Hollywood's #GoldenEra, working on Dracula, Kubrick's Spartacus and more. Jack created the perfect SFX environment, and we should know - we built one: bit.ly/2JCHzgC
