Regular 8mm movie film was never sold commercially with a sound strip but some people did attach a sound strip themselves. Super 8 film has the option but you had to buy the film with the sound strip on it and you had to have a sound camera and microphone. 16mm had both magnetic and optical. On the order form you can let us know if you think your film has sound on it. It does take extra effort to capture the sound and incorporate it into the requested formats. So, we do charge a little more for sound film.

We can not capture any digital audio like Dolby Digital or Sony Dynamic Digital Sound.

      

      

The above picture is just an example. 16mm sound film came in many different varieties. 16mm film with optical sound will have sprocket holes on 1 side. The other side will carry the audio track.

Super 8 sound could be recorded with a microphone during filming or could also be recorded using a projector when the film played. The quality of the sound varied widely.

Brockton Fun Facts: The city is home to Massasoit Community College (MCC). Brockton is often called the "City of Champions", due to its status as the native city of both former undefeated heavyweight boxing champion Rocky Marciano and former middleweight boxing champion Marvin Hagler. Originally part of the neighboring town of Bridgewater, the city split off in 1821 to become North Bridgewater before changing its name to Brockton in 1874. Incorporated in 1881, Brockton enjoyed success as the nation's largest producer of shoes during the Civil War and for many decades afterward maintained a thriving shoe and leather industry.
