Gollum and Smeagol are, of course, me, Atticus Mullikin, including the labored breathing at the beginning and the gasps and laughs. The music is a small section of The Dead Marshes, from the extended soundtrack of LOTR: The Two Towers, with the opening repeated and a crescendo from later in the music moved earlier for dramatic effect. Oh the noble ideas of humble origin.ĪLL of the audio here is completely redone, with only the original video remaining. Also interesting is that, apparently, Gollum was in part based on the sound of Serkis’s cat vomiting. Serkis drank ‘Gollum Juice’ with lemon and honey to keep his voice working during filming.

It was difficult to get even close to Serkis’s audio performance.
