Angles, Movements and Shots

 Brainstorm:

The Reaping Scene 

  • She volunteered as a tribute when her sister is chosen.
  • The people of the District give her a 3 finger salute.
  • Peta is chosen as the male tribute. 
Hope and Rebellion: 3 finger salute- it is a sign of respect for katniss from the people of the district.
                                    Katniss is a symbol of hope for a district victor.
                                    Katniss is a symbol of rebellion because she steps in for her sister ( a weathered                                            character) when she is reaped.
Rich vs Poor: symbol Effie trinket - extreme makeup, wig, hat, overly colorful and flashy outfit, proper accent. 
Technology - use of blood readers/ scanners, projectors. 

District 12 - Children's outfits for reaping are their best clothes, dresses, shorts - collared, or pants, colors
                     of clothes are very faded from washes and reusing. 
                     -The village is falling down around them.
Close-ups - Faces primrose when is reaped, terror, fear 
                  - Effie Joyful, confident, excited - close of lips when reading names, 
                  - Katniss - panics when prim is reaped, shock when she stands with Effie. 
                  - Peeta - Fear, Panic, shock.
 Shallow - Focus  - the people in the background are in shallow focus when film and katniss 
                              -This forces the viewers to watch the character in focus. 

Viewers feel - sorry for the tribute primrose - it was her first time 
                      - Katniss volunteered - selfless act. 
- Orange towards the capitol for the reaping 
- We consider Effie is annoying, happy, stuck up, clueless.

Directors Purpose - Need to be invested in their journey/ suffering 
                                - Need to be angry at capital so that e judge them and the decision later. 
                                - Effie is depicted as a symbol of people in the District, they are clueless - don't see the suffering.
