Notes I took from Hunger Games:
Director-
Gary Ross
The first scene -
music absent. hear nature, dull color implying that district is undesirable and sad, close up shots used frequently to see better emotion
District 12-
costumes - poor, dull, old, worn down. costumes used to show poverty.
environment - broken, destroyed, run-down houses, huge fences imply that the district has no freedom. able to see how isolated they are.
people- kids looking out of a broken window, not clean, hungry, man-eating bone
Forest scene-
shaky camera
foreshadowing used when Katniss is seen shooting a deer
the high angle used when peacekeepers go over them to make them seem weak and vulnerable \
Reaping scene-
able to see not all districts are poor
shows us just how poor district 12 is
low angle shot seen in when reaping video played to make it the dominant part
little kids used to make people more sympathetic and okay with it
Katniss volunteers, becoming the first person ever
close up on prims face so we can see her pain
Dutch tilt to show things are out of place
Gail takes prim away
Peta gets called
Katniss has a flashback once Pete gets called to show where she has seen him before.
town hall scene-
lots of closes up showing emotions
prim comes in crying and yelling showing sadness
Katniss begs Gail to take care of family
train scene-
music to start to make us feel how they feel
flashback helping us establish relationships between characters
Haymitch comes in drinking alcohol, alcohol is often associated with Haymitch.
Haymitch is the only other winner
Haymitch talks about how important sponsors are
Katniss and Peta are amazed when first see the capitol
lots of colors worn by people when first pulling up to the capitol
Katniss was groomed by some capitol people reinforcing how poor she is
meets Cinna, looks rich
deliberately show all other districts to make their costume more plausible
Capitol-
extravagant
shiny
affluent
clean and tidy
lots of gender diversity
clearly a wealthy place
deliberately showing the difference
Effie -
confident shown in Effie's voice
lots of wigs
bright colors
lots of makeup
clothes are expensive looking
looks different to make her the dominant character in a scene
Quotes-
may the odds be ever in your favor
embrace the probability of your imminent death - Haymitch
I'm not allowed to bet, but if I could I would bet on you
Chariot scene-
first, see the girl on fire
president snow has a white flower
the extreme long shot used to show how many people snow is addressing
may the odds be ever in your favor - 4 time
Penthouse scene 1-
flash and modern
has electricity unlike other districts
has a window allowing you to look at a different districts
use of close up on facial expressions
Training Grounds -
stopped using the shaky camera
music used to make us more engaged in the scene
flash, no colors used
Dark
Penthouse scene 2-
close up
no music, facial expressions used to tell the story
Katniss has another flashback of Peta
Training Grounds 1-
color on viewing platform so we are able to tell that they are better than the
music is used to make us feel a certain mood
Peta tells Katniss that Rue has been shadowing her
Rating scene-
Haymitch refuses to drink hinting that he thinks they might have a shot
Katniss enters the room. Low-level music, very dark very quite
The high angle used on Katniss to make her look vulnerable
Katniss gets laughed at for missing her shot, her next shot gets ignored
Music creates a mood of tension
Katniss shots apple gaining attention
"Thank you for your consideration"
Penthouse 3, Waiting for rating-
Ceaser Flickerman is a game show host
able to see the competition and what the game makers think of everyone
Katniss gets an 11
After Rating-
President snow always in black and white
Snow first threatens Seneca
See white rose again
hope
Ceremony-
Ceaser Flickerman interviews all tributes
Fire is embodied in Katniss costume
Over the shoulder used to make us feel like we are in the conversation with them
No music used when talking about prim to show emotion
Effie has new hair again
Peta tells everyone that he likes Katniss
Starcrossed lovers
The scene just before the games begin-
Cinna gives her the mocking jay pin
I'm not allowed to bet, but if I could I would bet on you
Arena-
a big forest with the cornucopia full of weapons in the middle of it
like the place outside district 12
quite
the only noise we really hear is nature
the dark undertone in lighting
giant dome
The Games-
boom sound = someone who died
music in the first minute of the game to give us suspense
an alliance of people from the first 2 districts
game makers add obstacles, such as fire
career districts use Peta to find people
Haymitch finds sponsors
tracker jackers killed glimmer
the blurry shot used to show Katniss hallucination
Katniss gets bow and arrow
flashback to when Katniss father was killed in a mining accident
rue and Katniss form a sort of alliance
Rue reminds Katniss of sister
mocking jay song as a signal
silence used after Katniss blows up the careers gear
Katniss kills the first person, the person she kills killed rue at the same time
Katniss sings the same song to rue that she did to primrose at start
use of music to tell the story of rues death
Katniss lays flowers around rue
3 finger salute for rue, starts riots in districts
snow threatens Seneca again
the announcement comes saying 2 people can win if come from the same district
Katniss finds Peta
Control room-
whites
blues
doctors offices and clinics
polished and clean
Symbols-
first time see mocking jay pin is when she is at the market primrose has to tuck in her own shirt once name gets pulled out. Implies that she has to grow up
3 finger salute is a symbol of solidarity and later on rebelling
The girl on fire
poison berries
