In danger of my film looking like a montage, I decided to put in some foley effects at the last moment. This enhances the film and makes it more naturalistic. It can also be controlled in Adobe after effects so the voice over can be heard and it doesn't go over the music. I used the website FREESOUND.ORG
Here is a screen shot from the website.
My main reason for foley effects was to get the hustle and bustle of London. I managed to achieve this by simply typing in :Traffic Jam:. About twenty different recorded traffic jams came up. I also want to give the effect of going into a busy space indoors.(in my case a gallery) In doing this in the end, even though it cuts to black, it still gives the illusion of my character walking in to the National Gallery. I also used footsteps. This again makes my opening two minutes more believable and help achieve continuity.
