Technicolor was revolutionary. Color was something that was sought after in film for years. Technicolor was founded by Herbert Kalmus, Daniel Frost Comstock, and W. Burton Wescott. The innovation for this technology involved filming the same scene with one camera and three different rolls of film. Each roll of film was tinted either red, blue, or green. The combination of these strips of film resulted in incredible, vibrant colors. Technicolor was the monopoly of color film from 1922 to 1952.
Sound was also an important part in film. Now, the challenge was more apparent for actors to be able to actually act. It had become unnecessary to exaggerate acting because sound filled in the gaps. Now film was more realistic than ever. Not only was film accompanied by music, but it also contained sound effects and synced vocals.
