 I will talk about the directors and cinema of the film and how they compare.The time line between each of the films actually correlates to each other in a time line way like referring to each movie for better understanding. I will talk about the scenery and how the directors choice of music for each film is important to the characters in the films.I will talk about how important it is to talk about the timeline of the film.With the music I will go more into how I think it helps the characters.

And the second film also by Ryan Coolger having a budget of , 250 million with a earning of and as of right now since the movie just came out,770million worldwide.Ryan Coolger helped shape the movie as well as the characters and scenes that we saw throughtout the films as a screenwriter as well. Without him the movies wouldn’t have been the same as they are now. The Cinematographer for the first black panther was ,Rachel Morrison which with this film was the first women the shoot on a big budget superhero movie and she was so good that they wanted her to shoot the Creed movie as well but she couldn’t do both.She opened up new opportunities for other females in this industry.When she filmed this movie she wanted the movie to come away with recommendations to the future and from watching this film and the amazing futuristic camera angles that she did I think she did just that.For the second film their was also an amazing female and im happy that these big movies are giving women a chance is,Autumn Durald.With her skills for the movie she went in a direction that was unexpected but truly worked.She worked alot with light and shadow for many parts of the fim.She stated in an article that when shooting the memorial scenes,she shot with the intent of a mood type of setting with texture and grief throughout the film.She did this by de tuning T series lenses and use a wider lens for close ups.The Film Music composer for both of the films were the same person and you can actually tell that from watching both of the films and listening to how similar the music choices were. The Music Composer was , Ludwig GÖransson , When creating the music for these two films he travel all over the world to,mexico,Nigeria, and London, and recorded about 2,500 hours worth of material to help him with the music.He mainly traveled to South africa in hopes of honoring their traditions in these blockbuster films.For his music creating He was tasked with creating a score that strikes a balance between traditional African instrumentation and the swooping orchestrals that typically soundtrack superhero battles. Ludwig GÖransson stated in a phone call interview that when he traveled to South Africa he started to learn the different types of instruments that had and that helped him create certain soundtracks for certain characters in the film. An example of this would be, one of the instruments that caught his attenedtion which was the talking drum which became the sound for the king.By hearing ad having people play all of these intruments it aloud him the start to connect sounds of all of these different instruments to the character in the film and thats how he got the inspiration to make the types of sound tracks you hear in both of the black panther movies today.

The theme of each of these films are, what it means to be black in america and in africa and the emotions of fate,greif,honor,and duty. And lastly each of the films follow a casual plot structure with Exposition,complicaions,a climax, and resolution.

Note-the quality is bad because this movie just recently came out sorry :(]]> 2022-12-16 22:50:06 UTC https://padlet.com/locolucas42803/n16thvgu81bq3q3v/wish/2423427116 Critical Reception locolucas42803 https://padlet.com/locolucas42803/n16thvgu81bq3q3v/wish/2423429743 Critics say that although the films including the newest one has gotten 80% on rotten tomatoes the films have an overly busy plot.Yes I can't see that But people need to understand that plots especially this one open new ideas for new projects and new opportunities in the Marvel Cinematic Universe And can lead into new films that take some of the plot from recent movies and better explain what people could have missed. The PLOT was Necessary for these movies because it helps unfold the next chapter of Wakanda and how Wakanda can help for a greater cause and even help protect our world as we know it from threats. So yes it may have been a busy and long plot but it was for greater things to come.]]> 2022-12-16 23:00:42 UTC https://padlet.com/locolucas42803/n16thvgu81bq3q3v/wish/2423429743 Bibliography locolucas42803 https://padlet.com/locolucas42803/n16thvgu81bq3q3v/wish/2423432107 Citations for Background:
