Manipulation Sound Effects

Manipulation sound effects, which in foley just means handling things. Clothes, bags, hats and gloves handled and torn. Glass moved, smashed and made to sing. Handguns loaded and worked. Face masks with elastic snaps. And an old zither, taken apart for textures and wrecked on purpose. Hands on everything.

Handling sounds are the glue of a foley pass, the small moves that make an object real in a hand. The cloth recordings cover clothes and accessories handled and torn, with more ripping in Tear. Glass gets the same attention, from manipulation to breaks and smashes, plus singing glass for something stranger. Guns are covered too. Loading and manipulation come with the shots and shell casings, so handling and firing match. The old Zither is pulled apart for raw string textures, which suit horror and abstract sound design more than a period drama.
