Read the following excerpt. Foley artists use props to create sound effects for movies. Their principal job is to immerse viewer
s in what they see by including the dimension of sound to add to the experience. Foley artists rarely capture the sounds during live taping that are included in the edited version you view. But, just how is this accomplished? How can the tiptoes of a child or the boom of thunder be recreated? A Foley artist sees the opportunity to use an everyday object to capture the sound: swishing a feather duster across a sheet of paper brings thoughts of a ballerina dancing across center stage, and waving a large piece of heavy aluminum evokes thoughts of a thunderstorm! What is a central idea of this paragraph?
The central idea of this passage is to show the importance of the work of the Foley artists in cinemagraph.
Explanation:
The passage above has as its central idea to show the importance of Foley artists in the cinematographic works that we like so much. For this, the passage shows examples of the work of these artists and how it influences the final product. With that, we can see that without certain sounds, films and shows would not have the same effect, however these sounds are difficult to capture and that is why Foley artists are so important and promote an often imperceptible work with a strong impact on the final product.
