Color is used effectively to create an atmosphere. We see this in the two scenes - District 12 at the beginning and the Capitol as Katniss and Peeta arrive. In District 12 we see a natural palette of browns, greys, and greens whereas is the Capitol people wear bright colors and a metallic palette of greys, silvers, and white is used. This makes us understand that things in District 12 are dark, old, and gloomy whilst living in the Capitol easy, crowded, and futuristic. The director did this to show the imbalance of Rich vs Poor. This shows life is hard and people are poor in the districts, but in the Capitol life is easy.
