Slipper sound effects for the quiet end of footsteps. Hard-soled slippers clacking on wooden floors, soft ones padding and scuffing, recorded at every pace from a slow walk to a sprint. Very homely. Around them sit sneakers and boots on the same kind of boards, plus dressing foley for the moment a shoe goes on.
Slippers are all about the sole. A hard sole gives a clear click on Hardwood, a soft sole gives a muffled pad with a little Scuff at the end of each step, and that difference tells the audience it's late at night before anyone speaks. The soft sole recordings go as far as jumps and hard stops, which helps when someone runs to the door. Both come in mono and stereo, so they sit easily in a tight dialogue scene or a wider room. For a whole household, there are small objects dropping on carpet and tiles too. It suits domestic drama and cosy games.
