Description: Have a foreground, a background, all in beautiful proportion. It's fun to get into designing with sound. If you can't do it yourself, get a professional to do it for you. Sound design is the future, and I think it's the way we're going to change the way the world sounds. I'm going to just run quickly through eight modalities,

Alfonso Cuaron

Most people just half-watch TV. They watch TV while they are doing many other things in the environment of their home. So, what they are doing goes through their ears as much as through their eyes. In television, the narrative and characters are in the foreground of everything, because you are watching TV as you do other stuff.

Mexican Director

Jess Row

Disguising your own origins is a deeply American impulse, but that doesn't make it any less compromising. The way I live my life is to try to foreground the tensions and paradoxes of being a white person who's interested in racial justice and reconciliation, rather than disguise or obliterate them.

American Novelist

Niko Kovac

Of course, the attacking players get the attention because they score the goals, score nice goals, and those are the moments that remain in memory. But I wish that other players who are not in the foreground, who still perform well for their club or association, get more recognition.

Croatian Athlete

Constantin Stanislavski

We have as many planes of speech as does a painting planes of perspective which create perspective in a phrase. The most important word stands out most vividly defined in the very foreground of the sound plane. Less important words create a series of deeper planes.

Russian Actor

Keanu Reeves

I'm not a photographer, so I didn't get into F-stops or ND filters or background, foreground, cross-light, all that stuff. But I was interested in the camera and the lenses. That's the world that I'm moving in, in terms of acting and giving a performance.

Canadian Actor

Hope Jahren

I think we get used to not seeing the green things around us. I think they become the backdrop of our lives. And I think you actively have to ask somebody to request that they put that in the foreground.

American Scientist

Albert Szent-Gyorgyi

Investigations during the last few decades have brought hydrogen instead of carbon, and instead of CO2 water, the mother of all life, into the foreground.

Hungarian Scientist

Ruth J. Simmons

It's very important in a leadership role not to place your ego at the foreground and not to judge everything in relationship to how your ego is fed.

American Educator

Geoffrey Rush

It's their story, and I got to be the guy in the back while they were in the foreground.

Australian Actor

Edith Wharton

The American landscape has no foreground and the American mind no background.

American Author

Foreground elements draw the viewer's attention and set the visual focus of the image.

Visual Importance

Foreground helps indicate depth, showing what's close and what's far away.

Perspective Clues

Putting something in the foreground can suggest it is important in the scene's context.

Subject Significance

Verb use of foreground means presenting an issue clearly to ensure it's noticed.

Spotlighting Issues

Foreground can mean to prioritize certain topics over others in discussions or presentations.

Prioritizing Topics

In computing, the foreground represents the most immediate layer of interface the user interacts with.

Tech Visibility

Foreground in computing also refers to the hierarchy of on-screen elements, with foreground being on top.

Layer Hierarchy

Foreground elements are typically those that users can actively interact with in a program.

Active Interaction

 and on other species. And let me tell you, these types of dynamics really play out on the landscape. In the foreground is an area with lots of fire and lots of wide open savanna in blue, and just a few trees. As we cross this fence line, now we're getting into an area that has had protection from fire and zero

 And even that supposedly honest moment, I would argue, is in service of the lie, but it's supposed to foreground the artificiality of the fiction. For me, I kind of prefer the opposite. If I'm going to break down the fourth wall, I want fiction to escape and come into the real world.

 So we decided not to throw the guy out and to rerun the experiment. But you know, these stories, and lots of other experiments that we've done on conflicts of interest, basically kind of bring two points to the foreground for me. The first one is that in life we encounter many people
