Studying Films (Hunger Games) Rich vs Poor / Hope and Rebellion

 What is district 12 like?

From my perspective, district 12 is like a slum part of the country. Natural music.

Children poking mud for fun isn't very fun. Broken window glass, people eating every bit of their food.

Coal miners marching coming back to their home. It all look pitiful. The buildings we're decaying. Poverty and femine. Faded clothing.


What is the Capitol like?

Futuristic technologies were seen. Brigh coloured clothing. Everyone talking with laughter.

Intimadating sound. Clean, elongated, and bright place. Over crowded place. 

Enriched with food, varities, and modern technologies.

 

Reaping scene:

A lot of silence, the lighting was dim and gray. After knowing who got picked, most of the people looked pitiful. Intimadating sound. 

Lots of close up and mid-closeup. The stage looked bland and pastful.

During the scene when they were watching the video, the people looked vulnerable and distorted. Whenereas the people who were on the stage we're quite amused by the video. Lights/TV projecting was at present. The hearing of every little sound was important, it showed that the raffle was terrifying. lots of diegatic sounds were used.


What are the difference bettween D12 and the capitol's clothes?

The difference between the clothing of both places were like a continuum. Whereas the district 12 representing the quality of poorness and the capitol showing the variety, rich, bright colours.


What does the word tribute mean?

Acting to show gratitude, act, admiration.

Or when a person is contributed onto/into something.


How are the tributes treated when they are selected?

After seeing the nominated person. The sourrinding people looked pitiful. 

They respected knowing that they're going into a death game.

Comparing district 12 and the "TV Show"

They had difference in clothes, colours, technologies.  The lightning is diffrent. The qualities of each food/technology and buildings. 

We could see that district 12 doesn't have any schools making looking for a job hard.


Symbols:

The mocking Jay pin - Resymbolises hope and rebellion towards the 2 characters in the film. 

- Whenever Katniss wear this pin, it reminds her the hope that her sister gave and rebbeliiong towards their government.

Three finger salute - It reminds the people about what happened in the past.

- At any time when something sad or very tragic happens, people froma ll over the distrctis does the three finger salutes. It reminds them the hope and memories fom the past people who had courage and died in the battlefield/war.

Montage was used to make the riot scene more fearful and real life alike.
