Ways to use a chalk sound effect

Make the answer land on the board

Three sharp chalk taps on the frame the answer appears give an explainer or a quiz its payoff, in a video, an animated lesson or a puzzle game.

A chalk screech behind the camera says someone is at the board, so your film, game or podcast never has to show the writer.

Questions fréquentes

What is a chalk sound effect?
It is a recording of chalk on a board: writing, tapping, screeching, snapping or being wiped away. Chalk sounds are dry and close, so they put the audience right at the board, which is why they work so well for lessons, explainers and classroom scenes.
Where can I get chalk sounds for a video?
Generate them from a prompt. Describing the chalk sound you want takes less time than digging through a stock library, and you get the exact stroke your scene needs. Every sound on this page was made from the prompt printed beside it, so you can start from one and adjust it.
How do I make a custom chalk sound effect?
Describe the chalk, the board and the action, then generate it. A prompt like "a stick of chalk tapped hard on a blackboard three times, close and clearly audible" gives Morphic enough to work with, and you can adjust the wording until it fits the shot.
What is the difference between chalk writing, a chalk screech and a marker squeak?
Chalk writing is a dry scratch and tap on slate; a chalk screech is the shrill squeal when the stick is held too upright; and a marker squeak is a wet felt tip sliding on a glossy whiteboard. Chalk reads as old school and handmade, so pick it when the board on screen is dark and dusty.
Can I use these chalk sounds commercially?
Yes, audio generated on paid plans can be used commercially. See our terms for full licensing details. Because each sound is generated for you, you also avoid the clip turning up in someone else's video.
Why does my chalk sound not sit right in the edit?
Usually the rhythm does not match the hand. Writing that keeps scratching after the hand stops, or taps that miss the dots, reads as pasted on. Cut the writing to each stroke you see, or describe the number of taps you need, and the chalk sits in the scene.
