Explore the world of foley with tips from one of the greats. Award-winning foley artist Gary Hecker is one of the most sought-after talents in his field. He works on AAA game titles, like Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (which earned him two MPSE awards in 2019), Borderlands 3, and The Last of Us—the latter two scoring Golden Reel nominations. In the feature film realm, he's walked the bound feet of Japanese women in Memoirs of a Geisha and the thundering footfalls of Orcs in Warcraft. He was even a foley artist on the original Friday the 13th. He's a regular collaborator with supervising sound editor Wylie Stateman on Tarantino films like Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Django Unchained, and The Hateful Eight. Animated features include Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (find an in-depth story on his MPSE award-winning foley work here), Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, and Spirit. This year, he's been busy performing foley for Zack Snyder's upcoming Army of the Dead and MCU's Morbius and Venom 2. Read More...
