Wall-E has used many different sound effects through out the movie and was brought together by the sound designer Ben Burtt, he would often use built devices or contraptions to make bespoke sounds i.e. he ads the sound of a blaster gun by stretching out a slinky and taping it at one end to make a pew sound. They have also used other gadgets and tools on the Disney cartoons to create sound effects i.e steam train. Ben has used small pieces of sound during wall-e to create connotations of emotions and has manipulated the tone and pitch to communicate what is going on. Ben used something called the inertia starter to make the sound of Wall-E's tacks picking up high speeds to create the sound of acceleration. the hardest part of sound design for Ben was making the voices because when making the sound for the voices he had to take in to acount that the audiece will analyse the tone of the characters voice to try na dunderstand their tone and what is goung on in the narrative for example in eves first meeting with wall-e her tone goes from sounding questioning to sounding optemistic and friendly, His use of sound has helped in building character personalaties.
