WALL E

Wall E is a good example of how sound is used. Wall E doesn't really talk so more sound is needed to tell the story. When he does speak though he has a robot voice. It's like auto tuned and electronic and not human. They also use sound effects but in this, unlike Tom and Jerry, the sounds are more realistic. They are not done to make it funny, they are done to make it believable. When he is rummaging through the trash if there was no noise it would be really strange. Or when he squishes his bug friend, if you didn't hear that, it wouldn't draw attention to it. I like how you can hear both of their foot steps and they difference in them. Wall E rolls but the ramp has ridges on it so it makes a noise and the cricket takes tiny tappy steps. It shows that the sound designer has really thought about how this would sound and every detail of it to make it seem real.
