  • Sound effects sometimes require a lot of effort and creativity to get right.
  • INSIDER profiled Studio Unknown, a studio that uses everyday objects to create sound effects for movies.
  • For example, artists use chopsticks to imitate the sound of a rat scrabbling across the pavement.
  • Meanwhile, a shredded rope can provide the whooshing noise needed to mimic that of a horse's swishing tail.
  • Colorful Mardi Gras beads sound a lot like a bottle of pills when shaken.
  • Supervising sound editor Matt Davies told INSIDER that old or broken items are often given a new purpose by these artists.
  • Found or antique items might rattle or squeak more than newer objects.
