Hunger games camera shots

Rich vs poor

Rich

Poor

Interview scene: In the interview scene the people from the capital have more designer clothing and a-lot of makeup.The technology that is used is more modern compared to every other district.In the scene also during the reaping there is a blood verifier which determines their identity.and the train that is floating which is really modern. Rich:More opportunities than d-12,more food,better properties,Modern houses,better clothing and makeup.Bigger area than every other district.Rich have more technology better transportation. Medicines:People in the capital aren’t sick and they look healthier than the people from the district’s and the people from the district's look sick and unhealthy and hungry.

Reaping scene: The reaping scene is when people from each district are chosen to play in the hunger games.A girl and a boy from each district are chosen. During the reaping scene there was a video of what happens after the hunger games and the garden scene.In the garden scene the president of the capitol gives speeches and quotes and beliefs for the district's futures. In the garden scene the reason why the scene was placed there is because the flowers and the plants show that there is hope and faith to the district’s. Poor:Less opportunities,no food for example Katniss has to leave the area to hunt for food for their family,old clothes,broken buildings,houses.

In the hunger games,directed by Gray ross,costumes are used effectively to show the theme of rich vs poor.For example in the Capitolthe costumes are very posh,they are neat,tidy,and colourful even dogs are coloured.the material is futuristic and this makes us understand the capitol is more advanced than district 12.

1.“I volunteer!” I gasp. “I volunteer as tribute!”

2.”may the odds be in your favor”

3.”thank you for your consideration”

These quotes are backups for my essay to the audience to know what scene i'm explaining about and so it doesn’t lose track of the reader also.It also gives a better understanding for the reader.9

Statement 

In the Reaping scene in The Hunger Games, the idea of rich v poor is explained through the use of wide shots and close ups. 

Explanation 

The comparison between the wealth of the Capitol, represented by Effie, and the poorness of District 12 is seen in the wide shot of the people gathered at the reaping. 

Example 

A close up shot of Effie reveals quality, colourful make-up and costume. The wide shot of the crowd is used to show that they are forced to be there. This wide shot also shows a lack of colour in the population of District 12’s material and costume to show they are poor.In the high angle shots for example over the shoulder there is a stand out of colour compared to the district 12.Effie stands out more than and we know she has power over d-12 because where she’s from and what she looks like.

Rich vs Poor-hunger games

Poor-in the beginning of the movie this shows what the character does for a living and how poor the character is and how poor the district is by the costumes are presented in the scene.Rusty houses,poor clothes and what they do for a living. 

Rich-the Capitol is much richer and the way the costumes are presented is in  a rich vibe of the capitol.The music also represents the vibe also.The makeup also makes the characters in the scene look rich and fancy.their were close up angles that gives detail towards the characters.Reaping Day:In this scene the color and the lighting are in a faded color.the costumes is also tell us that d12 is a poor district and during the reaping day when someone is chosen everyone shows them and kind of exposes the characters that will be chosen for the hunger games.The technology their was the projector that is being used too showt the d12 people what happens after and during the hunger games.The other technology that is being used also is the blood verifying technology.in this scene the capitol their is makeup being used but in d12 doesn't have makeup and how the hair is being designed.

Why is the bow the weapon katniss uses?Because the she has talent with the bow and without it she wouldn't be able to survive against the hunger games.But without the bow she can't survive with out it and she suits the bow with an other weapon she wouldn't be able to suit it.How is tributes treated when they are selected?They are treated in a bad way,like in a forced way like they have too and they look very afraid to go to hunger games and they know what its like when people die and don't come back to their families.


What does the word tribute mean?Tribute means like you are choosing to be dealt in something like an organisation with other people.When you tribute you are mostly forced for something to do but you are really afraid to do it but you are really forced.

IN the capitol their is long shot and high shots because their are a lot of people in the capitol.they have close-up shots during the interview to show detail like makeup and new technology with a lot of colors .the audience are loud because their no being chose to be in the hunger games compared to all the other districts.the capitol have alot of technology during the tribute and a lot of people with luxury clothes and when the districts arrive they have horses as a luxury vibe of entering the tribute scene.The districts wear clothes from the capitol so it makes them fit and also their makeup that fits with their outfit.

In rues death their was a lot of sad music and a lot of close up shots.and after she died d11 had a riot because of rues death and their was a lot of damage during the riot and a montage full of damage also.their was music that had like a riot vibe and the camera movements,the camera kept moving to show how much damage they have done.

The only reason why they didn't care about her shot is because they already seen her first shot and they thought that her first shot was gonna be as bad as her first one.but she shot the apple to grab their attention and that how I think she proved to them that she was worth playing the hunger games.

tribute reaping:during the reaping scene the way d12 dress is more poor-ish compared to the capitol and the way they are treated is like kind but a fake kind.the people from the capitol have a fake kindness too all the other districts.
