The original Star Wars Trilogy is a feast for the eyes; however, it also contains an incredible amount of special effects and an award-winning score by John Williams. One of these effects you hear often is the sound of TIE fighters. The distinctive sound was created by sound designer Ben Burtt and he achieved it by combining the sound of an elephant call and a car driving on wet pavement.
If Geraldine the dog was around in the late ’70s, he could have simply used her instead. When Geraldine gets excited, she makes the same distinctive sound of a moving TIE fighter and it’s adorably funny. In the video, she is reunited with her family after a visit to the vet and she couldn’t contain her excitement.
