Foley effects are sounds made and recorded for movies but added after the visual portion has been recorded. Foley artists use a series of tools and props usually banged together or dragged on each other. Th euse of foley effects dates back to silent movies when a piano player and a helper made all of the sounds for that movie.

More specifically, Foley sounds are when you use everyday items to create sound effects. A great example of this is if you record frying bacon, it sounds like a rain storm.

That would be a Foley artist. Very cool job. Well, actually, there are many people involved. A Foley artist is the person that creates the sounds (e.g. claps the coconuts to make horse galloping sounds). That's the fascinating part to me! They work with a recording engineer who captures the sounds. There is also a person who does the sound editing in a movie (the mixer, I think). That is the person who decides what audio to use from the original shoot, from the foley artist, from a sound effects database, overdubbed with music, etc. etc. Technically that would be the person who "puts them in" the movie. interesting interview with a foley artist at http://woodyssoundadvice.com/?p=22
