| dc.description.abstract | This research is to look at film scores in sankofa and Teza feature films. The goal of the study was to look into the influence of film scoring in shaping societal beliefs and habits. Using judgmental sample approaches, the researcher chose two feature films. Because the two feature films are thought to depict an African viewpoint. The researcher used a descriptive research design in conjunction with a qualitative research method. African filmmakers such as Haile Gerima, Ousmane Sembene, and Med Hondo are known for their historical documentaries. They regarded this viewpoint as equally valid as any other Eurocentric or Hollywood criterion. Because Africans have their own cinematic and musical culture, outsiders or Eurocentric/colonial standards should not judge them. Music is a cultural product, and culture is a critical component of social function. Music not only serves to express and perpetuate pre-existing human activities, but it also serves as a resource for contesting, negotiating, and creating new ones. This idea prompted the researcher to investigate how film scoring affects identity development using black cinema theory. Culture is the foundation for all identity development. Cinema can be a powerful tool for expressing culture, and film score is an important element of it. As a result, film music can be considered an aspect of an expressive medium of art. The purpose of this study was to examine how the film scores of two of Professor Haile Gerima's feature films, SANKOFA and TEZA, film scoring contributed to the story narration on black cinema thought and how it affects theoretical and practical identity development. The film composer and producers and other concerned stakeholders should give due attention to the film music so as to consider hold the attention of the audience and able to teach and conserve culture, practice, promote the conscious of the society. | en_US |
