As far as the stuff in the environments, we wanted to bring in that traditional beautiful color you see, and so many of the tribes are so colorful. They paint their faces, and they use nature to embellish them. It’s very beautiful. The Taron tribe and Dogon tribe are the tribes we used for the Jabari. They are master craftsmen with wood, and that’s something we took to use for the Jabari. And then the costumes, Ruth [E. Carter] did fabulous. They are so beautiful and vibrant.

"There is a team of illustrators — about seven I believe. And then a team of set designers, doing all the drafting and making our illustrations into practical sets. Then I have a supervising art director, six art directors — and each art director has a set that they run with a coordinator and a foreman. That’s a lot about building schedules and materials. Everything that you see, as far as finishes and such, I picked all those finishes."
"My favorite set was Shuri’s lab. That was the most technological set. I also loved Hall of Kings. I loved them all, but Shuri’s was probably my favorite because it was so high-tech. The fun of that was finding how to keep the story, history, and ancestry that would be indigenous to Wakanda into this high-tech space.
We had a great artist that does murals. His stuff is in the afro-punk festival, and he’s local to Atlanta. He came out and painted the core piece in that set. It’s beautiful. I was really pleased with that set."
