 Workshop-Essay Planning


Shooting the apple - hope and rebellion


Techniques:

Music lighting colour

Angles/Shots/Movements

Costume


  • Diegetic sound

  • Katniss - dark, dim, artificial, grey, black, blues - matches peers

  • Senica - vibrant, bright, colour variety - pink, more privileged/individuals

  • Costume - Katniss - training suit, tributes all look the same

Capitol - individuals - all different, over the top, extravagant

  • Close-ups - see the reactions, Katniss-pensive, shocked

  • High angle - once Katniss shoots the apple, makes her look weak and vulnerable.

  • Atmosphere - tension, Katniss comes out as the standout, someone to watch out for.



Change of Rules - Struggle for power


Music - minor, slow, dramatic - building tension, emotional intensity as music gets louder

Lighting/Colour - bright, natural, warm, green, black, greys, shadowed, - rising of the sun - new day, new victor.

Costume - not important

Angles/Shots/Movement - High shot - Senica has power according to the camera but the dialogue “stop!” contradicts that.

Close-ups - emphasize emotions - defiance, the stubbornness of Katniss - Struggle for Power

  • Katniss won’t let them have one victor

  • Peeta won’t let them change him.

Atmosphere - happy because Katniss and Peeta took back control, if they died, then they died on their own terms, didn’t lose their humanity.
