Technological Convergence - Filming Process

     Slumdog Millionaire was filmed in several parts of India in order to make the production for the film a success. The crew found this to be difficult at times because they were filming in the real slums in Mumbai, so the chaos surrounding them may have caused the filming to be difficult. They needed to find a way to come up with a way to make the filming easier for Boyle, so they used newer digital hand-held cameras and therefore spending more time on editing to get good results. The silicon imagery created a very dramatic overtone and real-life feel of the film. This was a big risk as the budget was high for a film of the genre 'rags-to-riches' theme and is not a popular theme.
