Venngage Poster - The Hunger Games

Here's how i've done my Venngage Poster for The Hunger Games, I hope this has some good explanations of this short clip we watched and With Peeta and Katniss, As Primrose got chosen her older sibling Katniss desided to volunteer as one of the tributes to save her little sister. These are the key points of the clip with a little explaining at each of these numbers on my Venngage

I Found interesting that Katniss had chosen to volunteer as tribute because as I was watching the clip seems like no one would of done that as Katniss did for her little sister.

I am learning to understand the parts of the clip that we are writing about, in detail and figure out what the most importants parts are

this work shows my learning by presenting a presentation of what im learning about in class with alot of things included in it

I am wondering what could happen in the next movie and how i could write a good SEXXY paragraph about what ive been doing and make it full of detail and very interesting for this Hunger Games we been working on

What I learnt - I learnt about some of the land marks and learnt new things about why hagley park is or was so import and also why the botanic gardens was so important. Hagley park was so important because it used to be used for horse racing 

I found out that hagley park being important was very interesting as ive never known why it was important, and also i was wondering why the park was so big 

Workshop 3 : Costumes

The Reaping Scene - district 12

• The children of the district have gathered together for the reaping to select the tributes.
• Boys - Shirts-  buttoned/collars, shorts, pants, whites, colourless, faded, dull, over washed.
• Girls - Dresses, Shirt + skirt, 
• Best clothes, probably only worn once a year, worn out, colourless, faded.

Viewer -  We feel sorry for the people, they seem powerless, they live in poor condition.

Directors Purpose - Show us how bad their conditions are , wants us to see them as weak, unprepared, hopeless.

Other Techniques - High angle with faded colours makes them seem weak,vulnerable, helpless.

2. The Capitol - arriving in the city. 

Katniss + Peeta have arrive by train in the Capitol.

The clothes are extravagant! There over the top

• colourful, vibrant
• accessories - hats, earrings, makeup, wigs, shoes, dogs, bags
• New - Like only worn once, fashionable - Access to good quality fabrics, patterns

Viewer Effect - Makers them seem higher rank, privileged, relaxed, we dont like them - Attitude of entitlement, clueless

Directors Purpose - Shows  themes of imbalance, of power + rich vs poor

Other techniques - Setting is crowded, people are happy, buildings are modern, big, well kept, shows that the Capitol is privileged. 

3. The Countdown - 

The tributes have just arrived in the Arena and are waiting to start games

Costumes - Survival gear, browns, black, dark colours, jackets, pants, t-shirts, 

Designed to look good, to be practical, light weight. 

Viewer effect - The tributes look prepared, fit, athletic

Directors Purpose - They are going to die,  the outfits are just for the audience,

(The Capitols) makes it seem more pagent like, 

Other technique - Silence, worried, excited to see what happens, anxious, builds tension, makes the audience focus.

Angles, Movements + shots

Brainstorm 

The Reaping Scene

• Katniss Volunteers as tribute when her sister is chosen

Technology

• use of blood readers/scanners

District 12 - Poverty

• Children's outfits for reaping are the best clothes
• dresses - shirts - Collared
• boys - shorts or pant

• the village is falling down around them

Rich V Poor

Hope + Rebellion - 3 finger salute 

• it is a sign of respect for katniss from the people of her district

• Katniss is a symbol of rebellion because she steps in for her sister ( a weaker character ) when she is reaped

Close ups

• Faces - Primrose when she is reaped
• Terror - fear
• Effie - joyful, confident, excited, close up 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
• forces the viewer to watch the characters in focus

Viewer feels

• Sorry for the tributes - Primrose - it was her first time 
• Sorry for katniss - she volunteered - selfless act 
• Anger towards Capitol for the reaping
• We consider Effie is annoying, happy, stuck up, clueless

Directors purpose 

• need to be invested in their journey/suffering 
• need to be angry at Capitol so that we judge them + their decisions later
• Effie is depicted as a symbol of people in the district, they are clueless - dont see the suffering

Music

• starts as we move to picking the boys
• minor key, tempo - slower, dynamic
• Starts quiet then gets louder to build tensity. Mood - Tension, morose

Lighting

• Mood - Sad, depressed, 

Colour

hope is the belief that something will get better

3 - themes + ideas

Struggle for power - Currently the Capitol has power - president snow

• Katniss becomes a rival for power - people look up to her for guidance , becomes a threat because snow sees her as one.
• 'Hope, its is the only thing stronger than fear. A little hope is effective, a little hope is dangerous!'

Fear - the people are afraid of rebelling because the last time they tried they failed, and they were punished with the hunger games.

Little hope - becoming a victor

dangerous hope - that the districts deserve to be treated better

Themes + ideas 

(4) Power of propaganda - information, Especially of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote a political cause or point of view.

- Message being told: 

• its not worth rebelling

• District 12 - Poor - houses - run down,wooden - food, very little, see old man picking at bones

Evolution

During this lockdown we have had to do learning from home, which can be a bit complicated. We can even learn more things well we are home. Here is the work ive completed for my science work

Why wouldn't the giraffes grow longer necks just because the trees were tall?

Individual life forms don't develop however irregular hereditary changes cause a few giraffes to be brought into the world with longer necks, allowing them the preferred opportunity at endurance over the giraffes with more limited necks. This all Sumarizes to saying how appropriate they are to their current circumstance, which means how well the animal (the giraffe for this situation) adjusts inside its environment.

What needs to happen in order for a gene to become more common?

Remember that Normal Choice occurs at the hereditary level if the very quality that exists in one organic entity will likewise exist in its family members which were referenced previously, this happens when it is passed down while duplicating. Irregular hereditary changes influencing the animals organic entities who convey it create and act uniquely in contrast to others with non-indistinguishable characteristics, coming about to make duplicates of the transformed quality being passed down(reproducing).
