Evidence of Editing: Foley Sound

Over the course of the opening sequence a selection of ambient sounds can be heard. These sounds all consist of Foley sound which had been recorded at a separate period. Specifically at the beginning of the sequence, where no visuals are displayed as the murder is taking place each of the sounds have been singular recording that have been timed to create a consistent textured soundscape.
I have used the screenshot below to try to demonstrate the sounds used to create the action that takes place in the beginning.


The beginning contains two pieces of audio that feature a person falling over. The use of both of these make for a somewhat more authentic sound of someone hitting the floor with the initial crash of a body hitting hard flooring before the more subtle tone of the upper body tumbling to the ground. This comes briefly after the sound of glass smashing.


 This includes the two different door slams which are played simultaneously to create both the slam of the door as well as the sound f the door swinging open on its hinges.
