After the success of our previous family-friendly edition, we are thrilled to welcome back the team from Modus Arts for another session of Foley Nights. This time, the event will be open to members only, and give you a chance to discover the world of cinematic sound effects - from breaking your enemy's bones, to going for a winter walk across some freshly fallen show.
Rather than a traditional workshop, Foley Nights invites you to experiment directly with objects and their unexpected sonic potential. You’ll respond to short film clips by creating your own live sound effects using a table full of carefully chosen materials – from pebbles and plastic sheeting to sticks, hot-water bottles, and celery – all amplified through specialist microphones, including contact mics and hydrophones. No prior experience is needed. You’ll improvise, test, and play in an informal, collaborative setting that flips the typical relationship between what you see and what you hear on screen.
The event will take place on the morning of Saturday 28 June from 11:30 until 14:30, and tickets are £16.50 each, which includes unlimited complimentary tea and coffee for the duration of the event. Due to the limited capacity, tickets are restricted to 1 per member.
