At its core, Foley is a story about the stresses of being a creator, of an obsession to create the perfect work of art, and the terrifying line between what we hear and what’s real. It's a haunting, stylish, and gory descent into the mind of a troubled sound designer whose work starts to echo into her waking life — with deadly consequences.

STATUS: Non-union with a small honorarium, footage, credit, craft services, transportation provided.
PREMISE: Frankie, a broke and obsessive sound designer/foley artist, is unraveling under the weight of eviction, workplace exploitation, and buried childhood trauma. As her grip on reality slips, and pressure mounts from a predatory producer demanding “realer” sound, she begins killing for authentic audio—capturing screams, gurgles, and death rattles with chilling precision, blurring the line between creation and destruction.
DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT: At its core, Foley is a story about the stresses and exploitation of being a creator, of an obsession to create the perfect work of art, and the terrifying line between the surrealism of the mind and what's real.
ROLES:
Alex (early 20s) : Sharp-tongued and playful, the kind of friend who masks her unease with teasing banter and acts braver than she feels.
Megan (late 20s) : Bubbly, image-obsessed socialite with a compulsive need to document and curate every moment for her online persona.
Sophie (20s) :Quiet and observant, the type who absorbs the room before speaking, but her rare comments land with sharp precision.
Young Frankie (10–12) : Withdrawn, hyper-aware child whose default is silence, carrying a weight of guilt far beyond her years.
Frankie’s Mother (40s) (Voice Over) : Bitter, volatile, and emotionally abusive, lashing out to mask her own regrets and unfulfilled ambitions. Voice is strained, smoke-and-whisky harsh.
Frankie’s Father (mid 30s) : Warm but broken, a loving presence eroded by despair, who tries to protect his daughter even as he collapses.
NOTE:
Performers should be comfortable with dramatic scenes, physical action, practical effects, gore and have an ability to convey a range of emotions
