SCENE 01 / FOLEY RECORDING
Foley Recording
Precision foley artistry that brings authentic human presence and tactile realism to every scene through masterful sound performance.
Here is how this works in practice. Foley recording creates custom sound effects by performing and recording physical actions synchronized to picture. Foley artists recreate footsteps, clothing rustles, object handling, and site-level sounds on a specialized stage, adding layers of realistic, intimate audio detail that production recordings cannot capture.
Here is the short of it. We connect you with Foley stages and skilled artists who bring scenes to life through precise, synchronized sound performance. Our team sets up session scheduling, prop sourcing, and tech recording to make sure your Foley tracks add rich, authentic texture to your production's soundtrack.

On Location
Poland's foley stages in Warsaw and Łódź — with artists trained in the rigorous craft culture of the national film school — perform custom footsteps, cloth and prop sound that gives every scene tactile presence.
Here is how this works in practice. We deliver foley recording from purpose-built stages in Warsaw and Łódź, where dedicated foley artists perform footsteps, cloth movement, prop handling and specific effects in precise sync with picture. Our team builds a foley pit with the right surfaces and a wardrobe of props, records on calibrated gear, and edits the performances into clean stems that slot directly into the final mix. Custom foley restores the physical detail that production tracks lose, grounding characters in their environment and supporting M&E versions for global distribution.
Here is the short of it. Łódź — home of the legendary national film school. The Opus Film studio behind the Oscar-winning 'Ida' and 'Cold War' — concentrates skilled foley talent. The Polish Film Institute's 30% cash rebates makes detailed sound work affordable for incoming shoots. We set up with your re-recording mixer, deliver to the needed tech specs, and quote budgets in Polish złoty with 23% VAT applied.
Here is the breakdown. Poland's foley craft sits within a wider custom of careful film sound. The country's auteur cinema. Roman Polański's 'The Pianist', Paweł Pawlikowski's 'Ida' and 'Cold War', and the work of Andrzej Wajda — set up exacting expectations for sonic detail that domestic post houses continue to uphold, and the production designer Allan Starski's Oscar-winning work on 'Schindler's List' and 'The Pianist' reflects the same attention to physical authenticity that foley demands. EBU membership means foley-inclusive mixes are delivered to EBU R128 loudness for TVP and the commercial TV networks Polsat and TVN.
Here is what that looks like on the ground. The Gdynia Film Festival and EnergaCAMERIMAGE in Toruń keep finishing houses calibrated to theatrical exhibition standards, while Netflix's strong slate of Polish originals has made fully foleyed, mix-ready stems a routine deliverable for the country's audio teams. We produce clean, character-specific foley ready for cinema, broadcast and streaming release.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Why is foley necessary when you have production sound?
Here is the breakdown. Production sound primarily captures dialogue. Foley adds the key human sounds - footsteps, clothing, object handling - that make scenes feel real and complete. These sounds are often missing or inadequate in production recordings due to microphone placement focused on dialogue rather than movement.
What surfaces and materials can you record?
Here is what that looks like on the ground. Our foley stages have extensive surface libraries covering concrete, wood, gravel, grass, sand, carpet, tile, and specialized surfaces. We also keep full collections of shoes, clothing, and props. If your project needs specific materials, we can source or create custom surfaces to match.
How do foley artists match character movements?
Here is how the picture comes together. Our foley artists study character movements, personalities, and physicality to create appropriate sounds. They match walking rhythms, weight distribution, and emotional states. A heavy villain walks in new ways than a nimble hero. Our artists capture these nuances in their performances.
Can foley be recorded remotely?
Here is what we have to work with. While we prefer in-house recording for quality control, we can conduct remote-supervised sessions where you give direction via video link. We'll share reference recordings and works-in-progress across the process to make sure the foley meets your creative vision.
