The buzzing is coming from your fingers either being on top of or to close to the fret. You have to be as close to the fret as possible but it is imperative to not put your finger on it. The string muting is probably coming from the above explanation, rolling the body of the guitar to see where you are putting your fingers. When fingering a chord or even a single note you have to dive your fingers straight in to the string making rigid bends at each digit of your fingers. some will say that big fingers are no excuse, I beg to differ, I have large hands and fingers and there are just some patterns I can not make in the conventional way. If that is an issue for you instead of using your index,middle and ring finger try using your middle,ring and pinky finger for tight chords.
God said to Abraham, “Kill me a son”
Abe says, “Man, you must be puttin’ me on”
God say, “No.” Abe say, “What?”
God say, “You can do what you want Abe, but
The next time you see me comin’ you better run”
Well Abe says, “Where do you want this killin’ done?”
God says, “Out on Highway 61”
