This audio file, dated June 27, 1983, features the distinct sound of a backpack being zippered. The sound effects, or SFX, are characteristic of foley artistry, the reproduction of everyday sound effects added in post-production to enhance media like films, videos, and other presentations. The audio begins with the soft rustling of the backpack material, followed by the clear, sharp sound of the zipper being grasped. There is a pause, then the unique, mechanical sound of the zipper moving along its track, a series of quick, metallic clicks, and soft fabric rustles. The clip concludes with the zipper reaching its endpoint and the subtle settling of the backpack materials. This audio file is a perfect example of the everyday sounds we often take for granted, recorded with precision and clarity.
