Impact of Sound

Sound had a big impact in the film industry. By adding sound it made the film feel more real you didn't have the text that would come up on your screen explaining what was happening, it also allowed you to hear the actors. By adding sound you are able to understand and get more into the film. The first time sound was used in a film was in 1923 in Paris.
When sound was first added one of there main problems was synchronisation as the picture and sound were recored and played back though different devices. In modern day cinema you don't have this problem. You are able to have all of the cameras and microphones in perfect synchronisation.
In modern cinema they use of foley sounds has become a high paying job as it is a very important part of making a film. When creating foley sounds you have to be very creative and you have to think about each shot and what sort of sounds are going to be in there. You cant just think about one object you have to think about the whole shot.
