Sound Effects (SFX, from English) - are various sounds used in film, television, music, and games to enhance or imitate actions on screen, events, or atmosphere.
Sound effects can be real (recorded real sounds that can then be modified) or synthesized (created from scratch using sound synthesis).

Examples of Sound Effects

  • Character action sounds, such as running, falling, hitting, shooting, etc.
  • Object sounds: opening and closing doors, sounds of breaking glass, the sound of a passing car, the sound of a running machine, etc.
  • Nature sounds: ocean noise, bird songs, thunder, rain, etc.
  • Fantasy and unreal sounds that are often used in science fiction films and cartoons.
Sound effects are an important part of sound design in film and television, helping to immerse the viewer in the story and create a more realistic and dynamic sound landscape.
