Camera terms and what they suggested in The Hunger Games (Narrative Structure)

Establishing shot – The camera is set far back to show/ephasise the location or the setting. (Forest, District 12, Capitol)

 

Slo-mo – A moment replayed very slowly – used for the flashback of Katniss’s dad being in the mining explosion.

 

Pan shot – The camera moves horizontally taking in all the details along the way – used when the train is coming in to the Capitol.

 

Tracking shot – Follows the action – used with a handheld camera to follow Katniss when she was running through the forest – made us feel part of the action.
