In the final draft script of " Vox Sola " , the symbiotic lifeform in that episode was initially described as " a fibrous , web - like organism " that " propels itself [ . . . ] with dozens of tendrils . " From then on , the creature was most commonly referred to simply as " the organism " and it was scripted to undergo three different stages of growth in the course of the episode . Actualizing the symbiotic lifeform in " Vox Sola " turned out to be a difficult challenge . The episode ' s director , Roxann Dawson , later recounted , " " You go , ' How do we do something like this ? ' To have to create that was an extraordinary job , and it required all of the departments coming together to work . " " ( ) This symbiotic lifeform was built as a CGI model by John Teska at Foundation Imaging . Effects supervisor Elizabeth Castro recalled , " " They did it practically on the set , and they also wanted it to have these CG tendrils reach out and pull people up and out of the frame ; they wanted to see the tendrils flicking around . To enhance it they had a lot of goo , which they painted all over the practical model right before they would roll so that you would see bits dripping on the actors . That helped us to match the CG . " " ( ) The sounds of this symbiotic lifeform vocalizing had to be hurriedly created by sound editor James Wolvington , who explained , " " Because the creature was all digitally animated , it meant that – relative to my deadline in the production process – I [ learned ] what this creature actually looked like very late . So in desperation – I have this bathroom adjacent to my sound studio and a shower stall – I wet my fingers and I kind of squeaked the glass and recorded that , and [ digitally ] manipulated that into some alien dialogue .
