The Reaping scene
- Katniss volunteers as tribute when her sister is chosen
- The Children/Parents of the district give her the 3 finger salute
- Peeta is chosen as the male tribute
Hope & Rebellion - 3 finger salute - it is a sign of respect for Katniss from the people of her 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 weaker character) when she is reaped
Rich vs Poor
- Effie Trinket (Character) - extreme, make up, wig, hat, overly colourful, and flashy outfit, proper accent
- Technology - Use of blood readers/scammers, projectors
Poverty -
District 12 - Children outfits for reaping are the best clothes, dresses, shirts-collard, Boy - Shafts to pants, colours of clothes are very faded from washes & 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 - Panic 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 Prim & Katniss hug. This forces the viewer to watch the charcters in focus.
Viewer feels -song for the tribute-Primrose-it was first time
- Katniss she volunteered-selfless act
- Anger towards the capitol for the reaping.
- We consider Effie is annoying, happy, stuck-up, clueless.
Director Purpose - need to be invested in their journey/suffering
- need to be angry at the Capitol so that we judge them & thier dicisions later.
- Effie is depicted as a symbol of people in the District, they are clueless-dont see the suffering.
