Sound in Animations

How Now Boing Boing



The sound effect from the boy’s mouth such as the boing and such seemed intact with the lip sync despite being a sound effect which is an interesting way of mixing sound and music together. On the top of lip sync it seemed matching to the audio at times but there were points which it did not. With relation to sound, lip sync is an important way of obtaining the dialogue.

Sound often varied depending on the character’s movements and actions. The music symphony occurring in the background was correspondent to what was actually going on in the scene, like the scene with the professor pacing up and down to the music that flowed in an up and down order. There was also one particular scene which seemed very significant in terms of sound being used to support the images in the movie where the boy spoke into the telephone and then a series of flashing lights came onto the screen presenting a series of flashing colours going through the telephone connector that seemed to fit with the sound beat in the background.



Tom And Jerry - 001 - Puss Gets The Boot (1940) from Girish Kumar on Vimeo.

Tom and Jerry’s musical background tend to alter depending on what the character is doing and the emotion of the scene. Tom and Jerry are known for their mute personalities and thus unlike How Now Boing Boing lip sync is not seen through dialogue is heard from Mammy Two-Shoes. Like the How Now Boing Boing cartoon it has sound that corresponds to how the scene is played.
