Hunger Games

 Brainstorm- lower angle- make the subject look better or more powerful, dutch tilt- to show katniss emotional felling- dizzy, something is not right- has been selected for the reaping, mid shot- to show some face expressions, body langue and the background.

What is happening in this shot- Katniss has volunteered as tribute in the hunger games where most will probably die. She volunteer because her sister was picked and she didn't want her to die.

Themes- Struggle for power-it shows that Katniss and primrose are helpless against the reaping, that the district children are going to be killed 

Rich vs poor-Clothing- Effie trinket is dressed nicely while Katniss is in cheap clothes, well worn clothing. Effie is immune to the reaping because she is from the capitol whilst Katniss and the children of the District are scared of it. shows privilege because those in the capitol don't have to be reaped for the games.

Hope and Rebellion-seen through the 3 finger salute when Katniss has finished speaking- becomes a symbol of rebellion later in the story but is the first time we see it, used almost in mouring. also, Katniss is becoming a figure of hope for the people in D12.

How do we feel-dizzy- put in Katniss shoes, sad for Katniss, worried because she has a low chance of winning, admire her for taking her sisters place. 

Why did the director do this?-till this point we know she hunts and supports her family, she can use a bow. Volunteers to save her sister, tells us that she cares about her family- selfless. knowing that she can die in the games. as an audience we start to understand her and care about her.

SEXXY Paragraph-in the reaping scene, camera angles and shots are used effectively to show the theme "Rich v Poor". in the scene volunteers as tribute in place of her sister, in the Hunger Games. A low angle dutch tilt is used to show katniss and effie standing on the stage after Katniss volunteers, This is used to make veiwer feel dizzy like Katniss who has just risked her life for her family, The low angle shot makes the veiwer feel weak and vunreble like the children watching from District 12. The director did this to help the auideance from a bond with Katniss and and understand why she will make the chocies that she does further in the film. It also shows the theme "Rich v Poor" because the people of the districts have to struggle capitol citizens like effie are immune and see it as honored and entertainment. Combined with the costumes, we see like

Quote hunting

"May the odds be ever in your favour" this quote gets used all throughout the film it used by Effie Trinket at the reaping scene to Cattiness and Peeta when they get chose to go to the hunger games because there is no odds in there favour and they have no chance of winning because the hunger games are rigged.

"the only thing stronger then fear is hope"- President Snow this ties in the theme hope and rebellion by saying this he means that he is giving the districts some hope that their representatives are gonna win but when one of their representatives die they lose a little hope so then District 11 riot because they had enough of the hunger games being rigged.
