The tales of Steven Soderbergh‘s efficiency are legion, but you might make the mistake in thinking he takes an industrial view of filmmaking. Instead, his approach is a product of his years in the game, a process to get the best results without any wasted time or resources, and a method that keeps things interesting for the ensemble of actors he works. But never has this been as pronounced as in the making of “The Knick,” Soderbergh’s superb Cinemax series, which has seen him direct, edit, produce, and act as his own cinematographer across two full seasons.

Being able to do the feet extremely well with all the nuances and shifts – that separates the boys from the men. There are foley artists who’ve been doing this for 15-20 years who still can’t do it. It’s not something you can learn. It’s just a feel thing. The feet are where you’re judged as a Foley artist.
