BLACK PANTHER

Black Panther notes and research.

Film in my opinion is a form of art as it puts the producers thoughts and creative ideas into a product just as much as a painting.

The purpose of Black Panther and general films is to make money.

Key theorist- CURRAN AND SEATON
(power and media industries)
The media is owned by a few large companies like Disney.

RESEARCH

any remakes or pre makes
actors?
diectors?
what else did the actors do?
advertising budget
digital sales of black panther


Chadwick Boseman as T'Challa/Black Panther and Michael B. Jordan as Erik Killmonger.
    Marvel’s Black Panther character made his debut in the comic book world in Fantastic Four Vol. 1 Issue 52, published in 1966
      The cast did the bulk of the fight work that will be seen on film. Chadwick Boseman, whose skill set includes a comprehensive martial arts background, knew what he was in for when he and all the other actors had to attend a “boot camp” to prepare them for the physical aspects of their roles.
        Over 25 000 cubic feet of foam was used in the Warrior Falls set, which was sculpted to match the rocks in Oribi Gorge in South Africa.
          Most assume the moniker and invention of Black Panther were prompted by the Black Panther movement of the late 1960s, but the character actually hit just before the Black Panther Party was founded in 1966 (though he did come well after the WWII Black Panthers tank battalion).
            He even went by Black Leopard for a short time in 1972, when Marvel was looking to avoid any controversial association with the movement.
              200 million dollars budget no including advertising and distribution.
                37 million dollars in advertising.
                  15 versions of the film with the character 
                    1992 first black panther film.

                    105 million in china (dollars) 1 billion over all
                      Film was actually shot in africa when they needed to be.

                      Film is a specialised institution.

                      How has ownership changed the production of black panther?
                      What about how successful the film is?
                      Major company films verses Indie films.
                      Indie films often have harder to understand and complex story lines or characters. it is advertised by word of mouth. they get released through film festivals and youtube. These films are shot in a small series of locations like the garage and the storage locker.

                      Mainstream films have clear story lines. high production values. have a 360 marketing scheme. they will have it online and on buses or social media. they focus on cgi and action sequences. Mainstream films have mainstream music with copyright music. Black panther can be based all over the world as the budget is huge.

                              The Radio component is based purely on industry and audience. Late night woman's hour: Modern themes Late night meaning that it isn't like safe for work hours 11-12 pm Loren Laverne Younger hosts and female panelists Patriarchy- men are in power and they kind of make the rules but this radio show is aimed at just women They have different topics every week  Questions and first listen Who is the target audience for this programme?(age, gender, socio-economic status etc.) The target audience is older than my demographic so its kind of for young adults aged round 20-40 year olds with specialised talks aimed at niche groups also. Women is obviously the idea listener but there is no way anyone would stop a man listening to it. Educated women are the quests and everyday women are the listeners and these days most women have had higher education such as university. How does it reach this target audience? (Consider guests, themes etc.) I think it reaches its target audience through not...

                              Facts This product was launched by Procter and Gamble and soon became a brand leader. 1946 character called 'the housewife' customer had high hopes for the brand  The advert uses the z line theory as the audience would read the text then look at the woman and finally they would look at the cartoon. The colours show a kind of patriotism as the American flag has red white and blue.

                              The use of bricolage Bricolage is a media product that combines lots of different elements form different time perods and styles. so in the fomation music video there are elements of 80's styles like when beonce is wearing the fur coat and has cornrows as this was a popular style aoped by many rappers and artists at the time. by using bricolage beyonce presents a specific meaning to the audience that her music and the meaning of her music will still be relevent to future generations so to show this she used elements of other times. The future will still hold inequality between races as this music video will continue to show the way in which society deals with thse issues and highlights the difficulties faced by many communities with in america. This scene references times were slavery was widely used through out america and this is a powerful scene because it has put black women in the seats of the rich who were the ones to use slaves. the costume is very lacy as the lace trade...
