Soundtrack Analysis - The Hunger Games

   The score for The Hunger Games is what we are aiming for. The soundtrack is quite raw yet natural, including instruments such as guitars, violins and drums, but uses them in a way that the audience can connect to.

Moodboard

   In this moodboard/collage, I have used some dark and earthy colours. The whole mood of the film is quite dark, as is the the narrative of the film and I wanted to add in key points of the film into this moodboard. I have also added in four of the five title designs that we have made.

Title Design

   Here are some more title designs that we have all made. They all follow a simplistic outline and reflect the narrative. 

With this title, we thought that the mist/fog included worked well as in the opening we can clearly see the cloudiness of the characters mind. Also this reflects the opening environment. The title took inspiration from The Hunger Games.

This is the first of our designs (designed by Rosie Lines) to incorporate a photographed background. We thought that this was effective because it included more of the narrative in the title and was also visually appealing.

This is our second design that has incorporated a photographed image (taken by Fraiya Chandler). We thought that the bold capitalization of the title emphasized the narrative of the opening and it can be seen as quite hard hitting.

This is the same font used in the title design above. We thought we could experiment with this title and see what it would look like on its own. This title also took inspiration from the Children Of Men title.

Suspense

Suspense works carefully by feeding the audience with information, but always keeping something back. We need to keep a sense of enigma and leave a question with the audience. It is an emotional involvement of an audience with screen events which creates the thrill of expectation of something about to happen.

Filming Dates

   We have chosen to film our opening of our film on the 7th and 8th of December 2013. we think that we will achieve maximum effect and productivity for our film during this two day period.

Test Shots

   Here are some test shots that we filmed in October/November. As we have changed the location of our film, these will serve as inspiration for our current ideas.
