Foley Editing for Short Films Masterclass
You Can Spot a Bad Foley Track from a Mile Away — But Can You Build a Great One From Scratch?
Here’s the truth they don’t tell you in school:
You can have pristine dialogue. You can license the perfect score.
But if your Foley sounds fake, flat, or sloppy — your entire mix falls apart.
The footsteps don’t match. The props sound off.
And suddenly your beautifully shot film feels like a student project.
That’s where this course comes in.
Led by 2x Emmy-nominated Sound Editor Vanessa Flores, this masterclass gives you the real-deal Foley workflows used on professional short films, festival winners, and network television — so you can craft believable, emotionally-driven Foley tracks without second-guessing every footstep.
