Hello I'm Buzz Moran welcome to our sound effects laboratory
so often in life you'll be called on to create the sounds
of disgusting, slimy, gloop well let's see how we can make some of those sounds
right here
let's make the sound of a dripping, viscous, disgusting slime monster
shall we we'll start off by using a bucket
a toilet plunger and some mud let's mix it up
the first thing we're gonna do is put some potting soil in this bucket
we want some good smoooooth soil that doesn't have a lot of mulch in it
that way we can get a good consistency from our mud, very wet
it smells like the great outdoors
well we've got about two inches of dirt in there that's plenty
let's move this out of the way
and turn it into mud going to use some common household water
perfect stir it around
what we want this to end up with a smooth consistency that will sound both
wet
and disgustingly slimy
we're ready to put the plunger in but wait we're going to make a disgusting
mess with mud splattering everywhere
so first let's make a little non sound effect device
we're gonna take an old t-shirt cut a hole in the middle
and stick it over our plunger
place it over the bucket to keep all the mud inside
but still give us complete control over our plunger
we'll tape it up so it doesn't fall off
and now let's make some sounds
there you are sitting having tea in your living room
when suddenly you hear a sound
a slime monster is attacking it bursts into the room
as you can see our t-shirt really did its job
it kept mud from getting everywhere nobody really wants to have to clean out
a bucket of mud every night and so
this isn't a very convenient way to make this sound effect
now let's try a more portable slime sound
the old macaroni in the glove trick in my experience I found that
the best sounding pasta is elbow macaroni
overcook your elbow macaroni let it cool
make sure it's good and wet spoon it into a latex glove
the stretchy kind is best you will make a mess
you will spill macaroni
mmm now let's pour in a little water to make sure it stays good and wet
perfect now
tie it off just like a balloon
there we go let's listen to our macaroni glove in action
the problem with this technique is
longevity starch such as pasta
tends to rot at a very quick rate
it becomes stinky and disgusting and your glove starts to break down
let's forget about it what if we don't want to carry around all of this
disgusting junk
let's just make the sound with our voices
the way we make this sound is by breathing in instead of out
and making as much wet spit sounds with our mouths as we can
coupled with using our hands as a sort of amplifier
so combining with
hmhm what a delicious sound
