style of film: henry Jackman composed to different type of theme genre. from action films to period dramas to family films.  

Achievement:
awarded for best film music 

how is he different to other composers: He not that different to other composers but in wreck it Ralph he did a lot of motif with different character and places the characters end up. For example when the royal race was about to start the soundtrack fit in perfectly with the surrounding of where the race was going take place. It's a happy soundtrack and when you look at the place everyone looks happy. Because this film has a lot to do with game he done most of his soundtracks in 8-bit how this communicates with the audience is by letting them know this is a film to do with a lot game.Henry Jackman also composers for video game where he got most of his ideas for wreck it Ralph.

 Compared to his other film he composed, like x men first class, he dose not use 8-bit at all. instead he use orchestra to show the intensity of every scene. For example when Shaw fired the missiles to the ships Henry built up the tension the missiles was about to hit the ship.


In conclusion Henry Jackman use different technique to communicate with the audience in different ways and in different senses.
