Short Response


The Hunger Games book was turned into a movie. I think that the music in the movie kind of set the mood of Danger and awareness.  When there is slow, clam music, it would mean everything is ok, there is nothing to really worry about.  When you have the faster, up-beat music, typically that means that there is some type of action going on.

The lighting  used set the mood of what time of day it was, and how it affected the people trying to survive. When it was dark out, you had to be more cautious; be more aware of your surroundings because it is not that easy to see in the dark. When it was light out, you still had to be concerned, but not as much as when it's dark.

The angle of the camera can give a sense of uneasiness. Like when Katnis was hallucinating, the camera was spinning, not focused too well, and it just helped you feel that she wasn't stable. When everything is normal, then camera is just basically standing still, not really adding too much intensity.
