Edison Film and Sound Edison Film and Sound
The first sound motion picture, "The Jazz Singer," was released on October 6, 1927. This landmark film marked the beginning of the "talkies" era, integrating synchronized dialogue and musical numbers into its storytelling. While there were earlier experiments with sound in film, "The Jazz Singer" is widely recognized as the first commercially successful sound film that popularized this new technology.
The first motion picture was The Horse In Motion(1878).
Fritz Lang's first sound film was "M" in 1931.
Murray Spivak made the first sound film.
Sound was added to a movie for the first time in April 1923, it was a short film that was showed in New York City. The first theatrical motion picture with a sound track (only in certain parts of the movie) was "The Jazz Singer" in 1929.

The first motion picture with synchronized sound is "The Jazz Singer," released in 1927. This film is notable for featuring both silent and sound sequences, including musical performances and spoken dialogue, marking a significant transition from silent films to "talkies." Its success helped revolutionize the film industry and paved the way for the future of sound in cinema.
The first feature-length film to include synchronized dialog and sound was The Jazz Singer (1927). However, there was very little actual dialog in the movie (only about 2 minutes).The first feature-length film with synchronized sound throughout was Lights of New York (1928).Both of these used the "Vitaphone" system, which meant that there was a separate record that was played along with the film; this was a a cumbersome method and was later replaced by the "sound on film" method where the sound track was actually recorded on the film itself and did not need to be manually synchronized.
The Horse In Motion 1878
Don Juan The nearly three-hour-long Don Juan (1926) was the first major motion picture to employ a synchronized sound system of any type throughout. Its soundtrack contained a musical score and sound effects, but no recorded dialogue-in other words, it had been staged and shot as a silent film. The first feature-length talkie was The Jazz Singer (1927).*However, it should be noted that the first film ever to emply synchronized sound (via sonograph) was the independent film, The Photodrama of Creation.
