The film explains the basic principles of motion pictures and shows how sound is recorded onto a strip of film. It opens with footage of female hula dancers (:40) and an airplane flying low near one of the Great Pyramids of Egypt (:45). The White House (:57) and former President Franklin Delano Roosevelt are pictured (1:01). A large projector in use during a theater film feature is shown (1:15) as well as a small 16mm projector in use in a residential home (1:20). Footage is shown of a small boy playing with a dog (1:37) which is slowed down to show it is comprised of a series of slightly different pictures (1:42) -- and that motion is perceived through the phenomenon known as persistence of vision. An optical illusion of a card with one side showing a bird and the other showing a bird cage is demonstrated by spinning the card quickly which makes the bird appear to be within the cage (1:57). Historical footage of Thomas Edison, the inventor of the first talking motion picture follows (2:18). An animation artist is shown drawing the images to be used for a cartoon on an animation stand (2:29). These images are photographed and printed onto a transparent strip of celluloid film (2:47). A close up shot of a projector follows (2:59). Essential parts of the projector include the pre-focused light source (3:02). The revolving shutter is pointed to in action in slow motion (3:31) as well as is regular speed (4:27). A cameraman operates a camera which records the images to be shown through the projector (5:08). The punches which produce the sprocket holes that control the film’s movement are zoomed in on (5:17). Footage is shown of a composite scene meaning it had been made from two separate pictures (5:29). Next, the movie discusses how sound is added onto 35mm films (5:47). Variable density tracks are pointed to (5:50). These could be reduced to the smaller 16mm films (6:03). A film strip is passed through a focused beam of light produced from an exciter lamp (6:11). The volume control is used to turn up the light and increase the sound (6:15). A demonstration follows of exactly how the sound track was added onto this particular film (6:48). Audio recordings for the narration of the film is conducted after the film has already been edited (6:55). Film is shown being threaded up for a take in the recording room (7:00). The negative is pointed to which will have the sound recorded onto it (7:04). The monitor man is shown at the control board (7:08) and the narrator of the film is pictured while reading from his script into the microphone (7:16). Another demonstration follows of film being recorded with picture and sound captured simultaneously (8:08). The scene is recorded in Hollywood at the Grand National Studios (8:14). Development of negative film conducted in machinery follows (8:35). After the film has been cut and edited, the picture and sound negatives are printed together (9:11). A stack of completed film reels called “Any Old Love” are pictured at (9:21). 35mm films are then shown which are of a ten-reel feature production (10:12).
