Paragraph - In the reaping scene camera angles and shots are used effectively to show the theme rich vs poor. In the scene Katniss volunteers as tribute in place of her sister, to fight in the hunger games. The comparison between the wealth of the capitol represents by Effie and the poorness of Katniss is seen in her in the wide shot of the people gathered at the reaping. A close-up shot of Effie revels quality, colorful make-up, and costume. The wide shot of the crowd is used to that they are forced to show up and stand there. The wide shot also shows a lack of color in the population of District 12s material and costume to shows they are poor.
