When you're running through the wilderness arena with teenagers shooting to kill you, you need an advantage. The control room of The Hunger Games has a sprawling view of the arena and thanks to concept art you can get a good look at it.

Reid Southen, also known as 'Rahll,' was one of the artists on The Hunger Games (2012) and he posted some illustrations of the control room.

This view is from the trailer.

Here are some of the artists that worked on the science-fiction film The Hunger Games (2012). As always, there are many talented artists involved in the production of a film. These are only some of them according to IMDb.

Synopsis: 

Every year in the ruins of what was once North America, the nation of Panem forces each of its twelve districts to send a teenage boy and girl to compete in the Hunger Games. Part twisted entertainment, part government intimidation tactic, the Hunger Games are a nationally televised event in which “Tributes” must fight with one another until one survivor remains. Pitted against highly-trained Tributes who have prepared for these Games their entire lives, Katniss is forced to rely upon her sharp instincts as well as the mentorship of drunken former victor Haymitch Abernathy. If she’s ever to return home to District 12, Katniss must make impossible choices in the arena that weigh survival against humanity and life against love.
