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.

Even though Super 8 film was sold in two versions, sound and silent, most Super 8 film is silent. Only about 5% of all Super 8 movie film has sound on it.

Eagan Fun Facts: Completed in 1824, Fort Snelling served as a stabilizing influence and focal point for development of the region. The original area of the fort included a parcel of land approximately one mile wide extending through the area that became Eagan, adjacent to the Minnesota River. The first residents of the Eagan area were the Dakota or Sioux Indians. Around 1740, a settlement known as Black Dog Village was documented along the Minnesota River, stretching and/or migrating from Mendota to near the present Burnsville/Eagan border.

Minnesota Fun Facts: (This peculiar protrusion is the result of a boundary agreement with Great Britain before the area had been carefully surveyed.) Minnesota is bounded by the Canadian provinces of Manitoba and Ontario to the north, by Lake Superior and Wisconsin to the east, by Iowa to the south and South Dakota and North Dakota to the west. Minnesota is the home of the Mall of America, which holds more than 400 stores and attracts nearly 40 million people a year. Minnesota became the 32nd state of the union on May 11, 1858. A small extension of the northern boundary makes it the most northerly of the 48 conterminous U.S.
