John Roesch has been a professional Foley Artist for over forty years. He started as an actor at Radnor Senior High School and with Brian Morgans help, the theater arts teacher, found his calling.He then went to the USIU-School of Performing Arts in San Diego as a freshman. He was exposed to many aspects of acting and when by chance a friend suggested they partner together on making a film, he jumped right in. The film, "Indian Magik is what you See" won the San Diego film festival in 1972. Springboarding on that accolade, he decided to try his hand at film directing. He applied and gained admission to New York University. He majored in the School of the Arts Film program. He graduated with a BFA in Film. He made a short film at NYU that he used to gain entrance to the American Film Institute as a Directing Fellow. After the first year at AFI he decided to strike out and worked a lot of independent films as a runner, location scout and an Assistant Director. As fate would have it, Dessy Markovsky, a fellow filmmaker asked if he could "help" with the sound on the film she was working on and that was his first taste of Foley. He found that he had a knack for it and began working at an independent Post Production facility, "Gomillion Sound". His then foley partner, Joan Rowe, (who helped him get hired at Gomillion) and he worked as a team for many years. During the 80's and early 90's, he opened with partners, Tim Sadler, Allan Goodman and later Ed Bannon, TAJ Soundworks which was considered one of the premiere Foley stages in Hollywood for its creativity and sound.Tim Sadler and Ed Bannon helped push the technological boundaries which made it so excellent. Leaving there, John went to work at Warner Hollywood along with Alyson Moore and MaryJo Lang. They as a team transferred to the Warner Brothers lot Foley Stage until John left in 2016 to accept a position at Skywalker Sound to head up a new stage to be built, the "Archive Foley Stage" . His experience as a foley artist allowed him to incorporate a new stage pit layout, water tanks and various surfaces that are superior in every aspect. He then had as his teammates, Shelley Roden as his partner and Scott Curtis as the Foley mixer. They have had many years of great success. John decided the time was at hand to hang up his "foley spurs" and will be retired at the end of March 2023. He will continue to work in the business just not on an active foley stage day to day.

We cannot change the cards we are dealt, just how we play the hand.

If you think it is expensive to hire a professional to do a job, wait until you hire an amateur.

Typically the BEST Foley Artists understand DRAMA, and all that entails to bring the scene and characters to &quot;life&quot;
