Hi! I'm pretty sure that Joss Whedon does the voice of the little white monster at the end of each episode of buffy/angel! You know the "grrr...arrggh" lol! I'm not entirely sure but somebody said that before and i think its true! lol
 
yep, it's true. Joss is the voice of the Mutant Enemy Monster.
 
It hadn't even crossed my mind who did it. Did he do the "I need a hug" and "We are Gods" bit too?
 
Joss also did the Grrr Arrrgh thing on an episode of Seth's Robo Chicken.

He and an assistant also did the moans for the Buffy/Angel sex scene. He thought Sarah and David might find it embarrassing.

Awww. Eww. Really? I'd find it more embarassing for someone else to do my moans than for me to do them. lol.

haha! really! never even thought about that!

I thought it was because he was too embarassed to ask them to do the moans cuz they had to be recorded seperately? So he and an assitant did them instead.

Yeah something like that. I remember hearing the word "embarrassed" somewhere in the story is all.

Maybe David just couldn't inspire enough passion in Sarah to make it sound realistic. THAT would really be embarassing!
Lmao! *imagines Sarah and David having to moan*

HAHA! Just think about it! Standing there in a recording studio and having to..."moan."

Apparently thats why Joss was too embarassed to ask them
 
aww well i think it wouldnt have been so bad, you do what you have to do for acting right?! lol i dont think they wouldve minded.

And the "we are gods" thing was just them taking the audio clip and running it over the monster, so that one wasnt him.

"i need a hug"? i have no idea. I need to like, watch that now and see. But yeah, the more i hear grrr argh, the more i hear joss, but in the beginning i had no idea either. and even when i first found out it took a while for me to really recognize him.

i thought it was Joss and Marti Noxon or Jane Epenson? definitely remember reading that it was one of those two. i'll have to see if i can find a link.
 
Dude, which sex scene is this? The first one, or the one in IWRY? Or the dream one in Amends? I honestly don't remember the moans, which I guess means they seemed like a convincing part of the scene rather than something that was added later, so kudos to Joss and whoever recorded them.
 
In the commentary for "Innocence" (I think--whichever episode they actually showed the scene in), Joss said he and one of the sound tech girls did the moans.

For the "grr argh" thing, he was told he had to come up with a logo and they had 8 minutes to do it, so he whipped that up as fast as he could.

The first one, and really it was more breathy sighs than moans. I think the music kinda covers it up too.

Hmm. I wonder why that would be too embarrassing for the actors, then. I mean, they were already acting out sex with their bodies. How much more embarrassing can some sound effects be?

That said, I'm so glad I'm not an actor. Sex scenes would be totally embarrassing to act out.

It's not that they were too embarassed to do it, Joss was too embarassed to ask them to record the sounds, the scene and the sounds were recorded seperately. It would be kinda mortifying though asking people to moan for you!
 
I think it would be even more embarrassing to moan sex sounds if you hadn't even acted it out in the first place...
