THE GREATEST HITS

from Film Sound

ANIMALS

• Animals are never ever silent - dogs whine/bark/yip, cats meow or purr, cows moo, even in cases where most animals wouldn’t be making a sound.
  

• Rats, mice, squirels and other vermin always make the tiny little squeeky noises constantly while they are on screen.

• Dolphins always make that same “dolphin chatter” sound when spinning, jumping, etc.
• Snakes are always rattling
