Producers usually get the money by borrowing it from a bank or by asking investors to give money to them. A producer hires people to work on the movie and gets the money that will be used to pay for the actors and the equipment. Most movies start to be made when a screenwriter writes a script, which is the story of the movie with dialogue and words and things that the actors will say and do. In the 20th century the camera used photographic film. The sounds in a movie are usually people talking, the soundtrack, and sound effects. Sound is usually recorded at the same time as the pictures are, but sometimes they are added later. When a movie projector, a computer, or a television shows the pictures at 24 frames a second, it looks like the things shown in the set of pictures are moving. Movie cameras take pictures very quickly, and they usually take 24 or 25 pictures, or frames every second. Movies are filmed with movie cameras or video cameras.
