SFX

Sound effects or ‘foley’. Sound added to the video during the edit to support the visuals. Sound is often overlooked (pardon the pun), but vital. Foley is sound that has been recorded after the shoot to sound like the image seen on screen.

Special Effects

Visual or sound effects, introduced into a motion picture, video recording, or taped television production.

Subtitles

On-screen text of what a person in a video is saying, usually for hearing-impaired audiences or translations.
