  • If you didn't sign up for crew because you are 100% remote, please don't let that stop you. We are planning on have some opportunities for you that will be remote experiences. 
  • We are planning on having crew starting at 4 pm every day after school and from 9:30 until 4:30 on Saturdays but are limiting the amount of members that can be in the shop to 5 per session. This is subject to change. 
  • Clean up will be more important now than ever. We will be starting clean up time at 5:15 pm to ensure that we have enough time to get the shop clean so PPS can disinfect it every night.

Weekly Vocabulary

Foley Sound Effects - Foley is the reproduction of everyday sound effects that are added to films, videos, and other media in post-production to enhance audio quality. These reproduced sounds, named after sound-effects artist Jack Foley, can be anything from the swishing of clothing and footsteps to squeaky doors and breaking glass.

Here is a short video that goes into what Foley Artists would be expected to do.
