If you work in film and video, you've probably heard of "SFX," but you may not know what the term means. In filmmaking, there are many effects incorporated into videos to add enticing visual illusions and sound effects to drive a specific message.As an aspiring filmmaker or video maker, you should know more about visual, sound, and special effects. This guide will give you all the insight you need to feel confident about using SFX in your next video.SFX, or sound effects, is a vital element that film and videos use to stand out. They provide a sense of realism, add and evoke emotions and feelings, and help set the scene without using words or dialogue.What Does SFX Stand For?SFX most commonly stands for sound effects in film and video, but it can also be used to describe special effects as a whole. Sound effects and special effects are used in film and video to influence the mood and reactions of the audience.Types of Sound EffectsThere are varying types of sound effects. As a film or video maker, it’s important to understand the various sounds and how to incorporate them with your digital audio workstation (DAW).Driving the plot of a story is aided heavily by using sound effects. The types of sound effects you'll often see throughout film and video include the following:Hard or Spot Sound Effects: These effects are easy to see since they are linked directly in a visual. The sound requires synchronization with the visual, such as a door closing in a shot, such as the sound effect of a door shutting.Background SFX: Background SFX is also referred to as "soft" SFX because the sound creates ambiance or helps aid a setting. For example, if the location is in a park, you might hear leaves rustling and birds chirping.Loop Group SFX: Also known as Walla, loop group SFX are murmured noises in the background, such as hearing the mumblings of a crowd. You can't make out what's being said, and it could be coupled with other sounds like clapping, cheering, etc.Off-Screen SFX: These sounds are things you hear happening off-screen, like police sirens. Another good example is someone going into another room that's "off-screen" to pour a drink, and you hear the sound of pouring.Foley SFX: Foley SFX are sounds you'll often hear in video games, but they go with a character's actions and use a foley

Short as possible. Keeping them no longer than a second is effective. Once they have been mixed and layered, convert the WAVs into 16000 Hz Mono using Audacity.The SFX files do not need to be implemented into vgm music maker. After they've been downsampled to 16-bit they're ready to be implemented in-game. For Mega Cat, I average designing roughly 30 SFX per Sega game. You'll run out of space quickly, so be mindful of length and try to think of ways that you can make one SFX used for multiple instances. For example, the same explosion sound can be used for a grenade, rocket launcher, destroying obstacles, etc. After your SFX and themes are complete, you'll be ready to test on real hardware!Editing Samples in AudacityA digital audio workstation (DAW) like Audacity can help you edit samples in various ways. For example, you can convert it to 16 bit PCM, convert to MONO, shorten, add effects, changing the volume, etc. It is a versatile and easy-to-use tool.Drag and drop the sample of your choice into Audacity. HIt Shift+M to bring up sample menu, then click ‘split stereo to mono.’ On the bottom left is the project rate expressed in Hz. Select the option 16000 Hz (16-bit). Make your sample is short and don’t leave too long of a tail or unnecessary data, as this will take up useless space. Export sample as Wav signed 16-bit PCMThe Final NoteYou should now be fully equipped to make authentic Sega Genesis/Mega-Drive music! The best thing you can do now is jump in and make some songs yourself! 16-bit masterpieces continue to resonate with fans and find new players because of their emotional appeal and satisfying game feel, provided in part by music and SFX. Go forth and start the next wave of retro titles with your own genuine Sega Genesis and Mega-Drive music!Question, comment, or correction? Please feel free to email me: mitch.f@megacatstudios.com
