History books recorded that the first film with sound was The Jazz Singer in 1927 But sound films, or talkies, did not suddenly
appear after years of silent screenings From the earliest public performances in 1896, films were accompanied by music and
sound effects These were produced by a single pianist, a small band, or a full-scale orchestra; large movie theatres could buy
sound-effect machines Research into sound that was reproduced at exactly at the same time as the pictures - called "synchronized sound" – began soon after the very first films were shown With synchronized sound, characters on the movie screen could sing
and speak As early as 1896, the newly invented gramophone, which played a large disc carrying music and dialogue, was used as
a sound system The biggest disadvantage was that the sound and pictures could become unsynchronized if, for example, the gramophone needle jumped or if the speed of the projector changed This system was only effective for a single song or dialogue sequence
In the "sound-on-film" system, sound was recorded as a series of marks on celluloid which could be read by an optical sensor These signals would be placed on the film alongside the image, guaranteeing synchronization Short feature films were produced
in this way as early as 1922 This system eventually brought us "talking pictures"
