The cinematographer behind Black Panther: Wakanda Forever is Autumn Durald Arkapaw, ASC. In July 2022, Arkapaw was accepted to the ASC. Her credits include Palo Alto and Mainstream features, the documentary Beastie Boys Story, and the series Loki, which was nominated for “Outstanding Cinematography for a Single-Camera Series”. BTW, Arkapaw’s husband is Emmy-winning Australian cinematographer Adam Arkapaw, ACS — who earned the 2016 ASC Spotlight Award for his work in the feature Macbeth (2015).
Arkapaw said once: ”Being a mother has made me an even better leader, multitasker & creative individual. It’s funny how the perception in our business is that being a mother makes it harder to fill the role; but in actuality, motherhood edifies it and makes you more capable”
Being a mother has made me an even better leader, multitasker & creative individual.
