Vitaphone

Vitaphone was an innovative sound system introduced in the late 1920s that allowed movies to include synchronized audio, such as music and dialogue, alongside the visual film. It used a phonograph records played simultaneously with the movie projector, creating a more immersive experience for audiences. This technology marked a significant advancement in filmmaking, helping transition cinema from silent films to "talkies," and revolutionized the entertainment industry by enabling movies to have synchronized soundtracks.
