Slumdog Millionaire- A case study

I am going to be talking about how Slumdog Millionaire was
  • Produced
  • Marketed
  •  Exhibited
The screen writer of Slumdog Millionaire was Simon Beaufoy and it was directed by Danny Boyle and it was produced by Christian Colson and was set in Mumbai. Danny Boyle had to go to Mumbai and look at the setting. Slumdog millionaire was developed from a book. Some people thought the book was excellent so they decided to make a film.  However, it eliminates most of the stories in the book. The films change character names, and some story elements. The love story was not in the book but it was in the film and, which featured in the film, was written by Beaufoy.The film cost 15 million to make and there was no famous Hollywood stars.












Marketing Slumdog Millionaire was marketed posters,     they showed on T.V, the cinema and the radio. This is another poster that showes what they have won and what they have achieved.This is one of the posters that show’s everywhere to make people aware of what the film was. The posters could have been on a billboard. There was a song that was called "Jai Ho" and it also made the film be known
