Wall-E is another film that uses sound effectively but uses techniques that i won't be able to use but i am still able to learn from the techniques that are on show.
How does it use sound?
A good chunk of Wall-E is without dialogue, so sound really helps to carry the audience through the narrative. However when dialogue is used it comes from sound designer Ben Burtt (the architect of the sound of the Star Wars saga) created the voices for the central characters with Burtt making the noises for WALL-E by tweaking his own voice. After the animation was completed Burtt had the task of searching for literally thousands of sound effects to help finish the film, many of which were apparently recorded in a junkyard.
Another way in which sound works differently in Wall-E than other animated film is that the movie opens with a scenes that have no dialogue and remains this way for quite some time so you are left with just sound and music to get the feel of the character and to understand the world that you're visiting which is an interesting way to use sound particular for a children's film.
