Used very well in the Rogue One trailer to evoke all the memories of Episode IV. Like some industrial claxon making the biggest ‘awooga’ you’ve ever heard. Han Solo’s sound is a bit longer, but the Stormtroopers’ one, which you hear more often, is a shorter one. BlastersĪ classic sound which you hear a lot in the Star Wars films. It really is the sounds that make you fall in love with R2. It’s amazing how they were able to get so much personality across with a few beeps and bloops. We actually have some local birds which bizarrely, and rather unnervingly, sound like sand people. I love when you hear it echo-ing through the canyon in A New Hope. The tusken raider scream always reminds me of a seal noise. It’s the only sound from the prequels that made it onto this blog post. I maybe just don’t have as much nostalgia associated to this one. It has echoes of the Speederbikes in Jedi. It uses the whole Doppler effect to warp the sound but there’s so much going here I just love it.
AUDIOSAUNA STAR WARS FULL
‘Beechawawa’ and ‘Yub yub’ are great Star Wars phrases in my mind, but the noise isnt a great example of sound production so that’s why it didn’t make the full top ten list. His voice is great but even just his laugh is so recognisable. Here is my Top Ten of what I think are the most iconic Star Wars sounds. These sounds that I have listed below help to add so much depth to the Star Wars universe. There were some ingenious ways they recorded and mixed some hugely iconic sounds. One of the production areas I always enjoyed learning about was how they made the sound effects. I’ve always been a fan of the making of Star Wars and as a teenager I always wanted to work at ILM. That was a great way to throwback to the original trilogy.


One thing I remember from the first Rogue One trailer was the iconic Death Star battle siren noise.

As it is only a couple of days before Rogue One comes out, I wanted to show a bit of Star Wars love on the blog this week.
