Like any movie, "Slumdog Millionaire" has it's specific camera, sound, and lighting affects that may emphasize certain scenes. The following film terms were used in the movie. The high angle shot consists of the camera being placed in a high angle above the scene, yet not as high as the "Birds eye view." This camera affect could be seen when the Jamal's classroom is being previewed. Another film term that came up in the movie is the "Frame within a frame" in which there seems to be another frame within the frame created by the camera's sides. This could be seen when the camera zooms into the television set in which Jamal was participating in the game show "Who want s to be a millionaire."
The reaction shot could be seen when the camera zooms into a character's face in order to see their reaction. In this case the camera zooms into Salim's envious face when he sees Jamal receives an autograph from a famous celebrity. Music also played an important role in the film, the music consisted festive, and happy, as well as sad, and horrific music. The music playing during the scene establishes a mood so that the audience is able to feel what the character is feeling. The film was enhanced by the affects of these camera and sound affects, they made me see the character's point of view, while feeling the same way the character feels.
