Name the scene:Train station at the capitol

what's happening:the capitol citizen are waiting for the tributes to arrive.

Techniques-Lighting,Cold,bright,Artificial light-Electricity.Colorful,vibrant,vivid costumes and white and grey.

Effect on the viewer:Makes it feel modern,Set the mood-Happy for the tributes to arrive.

Directors purpose-rich vs poor-Power,privilege and opportunity.better sewing technology because the costumes are better,not poverty in capitol.they don't have to work.privilege of being able to go and to watch the tributes arrive.

In the scene at the train station,lighting and color are used substantially to show the theme rich vs poor.In this case,rich means the privileges given to those on the capitol.This is demonstrated the use of bright,cold artificial lighting and a modern color palette of whites and grey for the buildings and vibrant pinks and blues for the clothing.This makes the audience feel like the location is modern and citizens are excited  for the tributes to arrive.the purpose of this was to show that the capitol has privilege of technology-they have electricity,trains and access to better clothing,This worked well with the use of costumes.the costumes of the capitol are unique,exquisite and exotic which shows they have more variety and sewing technology than those of people in the districts.this can be juxtaposed to the conditions in district 12 where there is no electricity and the colors and lighting are more natural.
